Abstract:
John Markakis, Günther Schlee and John Young have published a book on 'The Nation State: A Wrong Model for the Horn of Africa'. It questions the suitability of the nation state model. That as a descriptive model it does not fit the countries of the Horn of Africa is demonstrated by the prevalence of other forms of collective identification. The book contains a regional overview (The Crisis of the State in the Horn of Africa), one chapter about Ethiopia, one about the Afar Region within Ethiopia, one about transborder processes between Sudan, Ethiopia, South Sudan and Uganda, and one chapter about South Sudan. Recurrent patterns of conflict are identified in a concluding chapter. (Verlagsangaben)
