Über Achieving Security in Sub-Saharan Africa, the threats and UKs Role
Sub-Saharan Africa, represents one of the widest cultural diversities on the planet, however, in the last two decades of the 20th century nearly 5 million people died in conflict across this region. Success at achieving any form of meaningful security for the region remains elusive and whilst many reasons have been put forward for this failure, it must be acknowledged that the security problems for the region remain complex. When looking at African security one must appreciate the historic influences have shaped the region and how these influences still impact on the current security situation. The UK¿s impact on the region remains significant, first as a colonial power and then as a leading member of the developed world and G8 nations. This book questions whether, Sub-Saharan Africa will ever be able to achieve a lasting security, how will it be achieved and is there a role for the UK in this process. This book should be of use to those who are looking to develop the future security of Sub-Saharan Africa and where the UK can make a contribution this work.
