Struggle for Land in Southern Somalia: The War Behind the War

From Book News, Inc.
Nine anthropology, history, and African studies scholars examine the land and resources issues of modern Somalia adding a critical dimension to the understanding of factional politics leading to the country's devastating Civil War. The essays offer important historical discussions about the events leading to the country's war, explanations of local communities and customs, and the regional politics and economics which conflicted with state policy, particularly in the area of land use practices.
