Torn by ongoing civil and military violence, Africa presents a
challenge to scholars interested in the root causes of conflict.
Each conflict is unique, but overall they exhibit common patterns.
The contributors of this book employ an eclectic array of current
explanations of civil strife and how to resolve it. The first half
of the book provides the relevant theoretical background. Theories
of conflict and conflict resolution, the larger context of African
strife in Africa, and patterns and trends of conflict are
discussed. Shifting from the general to the particular, the
remaining chapters of this volume gauge the accuracy and usefulness
of the current thinking on conflicts by grounding it in case
studies drawn from the Great Lakes Region, Liberia, Nigeria, and
Zambia.
