- This is a longer-form output of around 105,000 words based on six years of research, including extensive fieldwork across eight African countries. The fieldwork included over 130 interviews with current and former senior politico-security figures. It also included data collection of media sources and policy/government documents held in archives covering a period of 40 years. The book introduces a novel conceptual framework for analysing and understanding the impact of liberation struggle and ‘post-liberation’ regimes on contemporary East African politics. It also provides an empirically-rich and highly original study of the political history of East Africa since the Cold War.
