ALEX DE WAAL is Executive Director of the World Peace Foundation and a Research Professor at The Fletcher School, Tuft�s University.
"The foremost Western analyst of the Horn of Africa, Alex de Waal
provides a superb account of the region's highly interdependent and
often troubling politics. He combines an anthropologist's attention
to local contexts with a political economist's analysis of
transnational entanglements of markets, power struggles, and war.
Often disturbing, even though de Waal seeks reasons to be hopeful,
but a must read."
Craig Calhoun, London School of Economics and Political Science "An
outstanding book. The author's knowledge of the topic and region is
unrivalled, and enlivened and enlightened by his personal
experience and anecdotes"
Pádraig Carmody, Trinity College, Dublin
