Crisis and Terror in the Horn of Africa cover

Contemporary social life in the Horn of Africa is generally a state-orchestrated experience that terrorizes the majority of the people. This collection of carefully selected essays, explores the different aspects of the current crisis in the Horn region of Africa, where to marginalized indigenous groups the crisis materializes itself as social experiences of terror. The result is a far-reaching and important book which critically examines a state terror manifested in the violation of human rights, democracy, justice and freedom.

’The deep level of analysis is made possible by the well-constructed framework of issues relating to the relative health of the state in each country. In addition, those who are unfamiliar with the region of the Horn of Africa would also find the initial comparative chapters useful as a solid introduction to the politics of this area.’ Just News ’...a most interesting collection of articles...the book serves as a useful introduction to the pervasive and perpetual crisis that is the Horn of Africa.’ Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management
