商品簡介
Nine chapters, presented by Bryden (deputy head of research, Geneva Center for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces, Switzerland) and N'Diaye (political science and pan-African studies, College Wooster, US), examine the current picture of security sector governance in each of the Francophone West African countries (Benin, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Guinea, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal, and Togo), focusing on the dynamics of security sector governance as they relate to the issues and perceptions that divide the state, the security sector, and citizens. The nine case studies are accompanied by an introductory overview of key issues and a concluding chapter that explores regional possibilities for security sector reform.
