1. Africa's World War
Congo, the Rwandan Genocide, and the Making of a Continental Catastrophe
A concise, authoritative examination of the complex, region-wide wars that engulfed the Great Lakes in the late 1990s and early 2000s, tracing roots to the Rwandan genocide and state collapse and showing how local ethnic tensions, refugee flows, predatory governance, regional rivalries, and exploitation of mineral resources combined to produce protracted violence, humanitarian catastrophe, and international complicity.
