‘None But Ourselves’ - Democratic Design of Security and Defence Policy in Africa
Aug 2007, Vol. 152, No. 4
By Laurie Nathan
Over the past few years defence analysts and staff officers have explored the emergence of a ‘revolution in military affairs’, a dramatic change in the nature of operations and warfare occasioned by sophisticated technology and organizational innovation. What are the implications for African armies, which are largely low-tech? More fundamentally, what should African armies in the Twenty-first century be doing? And most important of all, who should decide what African armies and other security services do and look like?
