This book examines the radical changes in social and political
landscape of the Upper Guinea Coast region over the past 30 years
as a result of civil wars, post-war interventions by international,
humanitarian agencies and peacekeeping missions, as well as a
regional public health crisis (Ebola epidemic). The emphasis on
'crises' in this book draws attention to the intense
socio-transformations in the region over the last three decades.
Contemporary crises and changes in the region provoke a challenge
to accepted ways of understanding and imagining socio-political
life in the region - whether at the level of subnational and
national communities, or international and regional structures of
interest, such as refugees, weapon trafficking, cross-border
military incursions, regional security, and transnational
epidemics. This book explores and transcends the central
explanatory tropes that have oriented research on the region and
re-evaluates them in the light of the contemporary structural
dynamics of crises, changes and continuities.
