Résumé : |
Back cover: The United Nations' presence in Sierra Leone has made that country a subject of international attention to an unprecedented degree. Once identified as a source of the "New Barbarism", it has also become a proving ground for Western interventions in the war against terrorism.
The conventional diplomatic approach to Sierra Leone's civil war is that it has been a contest between two clearly defined sides. David Keen demonstrates that this is not the case: the various armed group were fractured throughout the 1990s, often colluded with one another, and has little interest in bringing the war to an end. |
