In the later decades of the 20th century, Africa plunged into
political chaos. States failed, governments became predators, and
citizens took up arms. In When Things Fell Apart, Robert H. Bates
advances an explanation of state failure in Africa. In so doing, he
not only plumbs the depths of the continent's late-century tragedy,
but also the logic of political order and the foundations of the
state. This book covers a wide range of territory by drawing on
materials from Rwanda, Sudan, Liberia, and Congo. Written to be
accessible to the general reader, it is nonetheless a must-read for
scholars and policy makers concerned with political conflict and
state failure.
