Guns and Governance in the Rift Valley: Pastoralist Conflict and Small Arms


Overview

A vivid account of modern pastoralist armed conflict. Small arms dominate conflicts in Africa. More people die in wars in Africa than in any other continent. In cattle raiding the AK47 has replaced the spear. This book answers the questions of why so many small arms are circulating in North-East Africa and how they are affecting peace in these countries. Kennedy Mkutu proposes an integrated regional approach in which improved security, community involvement and economic development precede and accompanydisarmament. KENNEDY AGADE MKUTU has a doctorate in Peace Studies from Bradford University and lectures at the Kenya Institute for Administration North America: Indiana U Press; Kenya: EAEP; Uganda: Fountain; South Africa: Jacana
