Description
This is the first collection of essays offering scholarly analysis on how to reduce violence in Africa by discussing ecological factors. In this book various scholars analyze violence throughout Africa by looking at the implications on global security, as well as ecological circumstances that create it. The authors meticulously research possible solutions to the conflicts in the Niger Delta, the Bakassi Peninsula, and Piracy on the Eastern part of an often ignored continent. The authors contextualize these issues within history, economics, and ecology, while also paying close attention to neighboring states as well. There is a lengthy discussion of how the discovery of oil in Nigeria permanently transformed the region.
