Searching for Boko Haram: A History of Violence in Central Africa
MacEachern, Scott (Professor of Anthropology, Professor of Anthropology, Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Maine)
This book provides much-needed historical context to the recent rise of Boko Haram, which has terrorised northeastern Nigeria through the last six years. It particularly examines the links between Boko Haram and borderland phenomena -- especially slave-raiding, banditry, and smuggling -- in this region during the last millennium.
