Shifting Grounds for African Secessionism?. 330 $aSecessionism perseveres as a complex political phenomenon in Africa, yet often a more in-depth analysis is overshadowed by the aspirational simplicity of pursuing a new state. Using historical and contemporary approaches, this edited volume offers the most exhaustive collection of empirical studies of African secessionism to date. The respected expert contributors put salient and lesser known cases into comparative perspective, covering Biafra, Katanga, Eritrea and South Sudan alongside Barotseland, Cabinda, and the Comoros, among others. Suggesting that African secessionism can be understood through the categories of aspiration, grievance, performance, and disenchantment, the book's analytical framework promises to be a building block for future studies of the topic. . 410 0$aPalgrave Series in African Borderlands Studies 606 $aAfrica?Politics and government 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aPublic policy 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aRegionalism 606 $aAfrican Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911090 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 606 $aPublic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060 606 $aPolitical History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080 606 $aRegionalism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912050 615 0$aAfrica?Politics and government. 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 0$aPublic policy. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aRegionalism. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aRegionalism. 676 $a320.96 702 $ade Vries$b Lotje$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aEnglebert$b Pierre$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSchomerus$b Mareike$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910338037203321 996 $aSecessionism in African Politics$92507408 997 $aUNINA
