{"product_id":"the-security-arena-in-africa-tim-glawion-9781108493376","title":"The Security Arena in Africa: Local Order-Making in the Central African Republic, Somaliland, and South Sudan","description":"The labels 'state fragility' and 'civil war' suggest that security within several African countries has broken down. As Tim Glawion observes, however, while people do experience insecurity in some parts of conflict-affected countries, in other areas they live in relative security. Conducting in-depth field-research between 2014 and 2018, The Security Arena in Africa is based on first-hand insights into South Sudan and the Central African Republic during their ongoing civil wars, and Somalia's breakaway state of Somaliland. Gaining valuable accounts from the people whose security is at stake, this bottom-up perspective on discussions of peace and security tells vivid stories from the field to explore complex security dynamics, making theoretical insights translatable to real-world experiences and revealing how security is created and undermined in these fragile states.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Glawion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108493378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108493376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Tim Glawion","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120832573695,"sku":"9781108493376","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9de8ce4b-bbac-4aef-a996-b4d57be66ac9.jpg?v=1687416533","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-security-arena-in-africa-tim-glawion-9781108493376","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
