This book explores the impact and efficiency of Western
intervention in African civil wars. Emphasizing the relational
conditions to the study of interventions, it posits the importance
of historical, institutional relationships not just in the decision
to intervene but also in the process of intervention and its
outcome. Drawing from case studies of American and European
intervention in Sierra Leone, Cote d'Ivoire, and Mali, the author
applies a multi-method research design to identify the role
colonial legacy plays in shaping the success of interventions. Her
analysis concludes that the relational context of interventions
helps determine the likelihood of success and that not all states
are appropriately equipped to intervene in all civil wars, which is
not simply a function of defense spending on materials. This book
thus speaks to both academics and policy-makers specializing in
conflict resolution and conflict dynamics in modern African civil
wars.
