A Different Kind of War Story takes us to the frontlines of one of
the most brutal wars in recent history. The setting is Mozambique
during the fifteen-year war of terror that took a million
lives-mostly civilian-and completely destroyed homes, crops,
hospitals, schools, and even access to water. The characters are
the soldiers who fought it, the thieves and opportunists who
profited from it, and the ordinary people whose lives were
shattered by it and from whose ranks emerged the heroes and healers
who created peace. Combining contemporary theory and innovative
methodology, Nordstrom explores the nature and culture of terror
warfare and raises thought-provoking questions about state power,
civilian resistance, and the politics of identity. She compares the
conflict in Mozambique with similar conflicts and offers a new way
of looking at political violence, showing that just as violence is
learned, it can be unlearned.
