520 | |a In 2007, the Bush administration created a new military presence in Africa—AFRICOM (US Africa Command)—which has been vigorously debated ever since. Some see AFRICOM as the answer to an African security system crippled by a lack of resources, widespread politicization, and institutional weakness. Others claim that the program is nothing more than another attempt by the US to secure its own interests in the region. In African Security and the African Command, contributors with a range of views on the issues examine the objectives and activities of AFRICOM, offering a well-rounded picture of ongoing security challenges in Africa and what might be done to address them. | ||
