A propos de cet article

Hardcover. The Handbook of African Defence and Armed Forces provides the first in-depth and multifaceted analysis of the evolution and current state of national defence policies, strategies, doctrines, capabilities, security challenges, and strategic responses of African states and their armed forces. Geographically, these aspects are investigated at the national, sub-regional, and regional levels. Chronologically, they are analysed against the backdrop of the'superpower withdrawal' from the continent in the 1990s, and the so-called 'New Scramble for Africa', which has seen a crescendo of renewed great power interest in the continent's resources, as well as its strategicrole, location, and relevance since the 2000s.The book takes a bottom-up and African-centric approach, and is organized around five key themes: i) the differing security outlooks and defence policies of African powers within the region and the different sub-regions; ii) the strategies, doctrines, transformation, and employment of African armed forces; iii) the relationship between African armed forces with sub-regional, regional, and international organizations; iv) thechallenges that African states and their armed forces have been facing and their strategic responses; and v) the position of African perspectives and agency in the context of continental andinternational security and defence. Understanding African security and defence, especially in terms of each individual nation's ability to contribute to peacekeeping operations, counterterrorism, border security, and internal security requires a focus on the national level of armed forces and defence policies; this in turns sheds light on sub-regional and regional divergences, challenges, and cooperation. Based on this framework, the chapters in this volume offer comprehensive Africanperspectives on African and international security and defence, and in doing so show the agency of the continent's countries and armed forces in International Security and Relations. This book provides an in-depth multifaceted analysis of the evolution and current state of national defence policies, capabilities, security challenges, and strategic responses of African states. It takes an African-centric approach and demonstrates the agency of the continent's countries and armed forces in International Security and Relations.
