And what differences and similarities can be found, both among the continent's diverse rebellions and guerilla movements and between them and movements elsewhere in the world? Addressing these issues, the authors of Africa's Insurgents explore how new groups are emerging and existing ones changing in response to an evolving landscape.InsurgencyAfricaGuerrillasAfricaViolenceAfricaAfricaPolitics and government1960-AfricaHistoryAutonomy and independence movementsInsurgencyGuerrillasViolence355.02/18096Bøås Morten1965-Dunn Kevin C.1967-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812281803321Africa's insurgents3969035UNINA
