United States Foreign Policy toward Africa: Incrementalism Crisis and Change
The United States and Ethiopia: Military Assistance and the Quest for Security, 1953-1993
Examines the case of the United States military assistance to Ethiopia and its consequences. Among the issues explored are: origins, motivations and dynamics of US assistance; use of the forces for internal security; and effects of the assistance on Ethiopia's foreign policy
Interstate Conflicts in West Africa: The Reference Group Theory Perspective
Making a methodological shift from European-based to African-based reference groups, this article examines interstate conflicts in West Africa against the backdrop of reference group theory. The main thesis is that as a subsystem with implicit aim for stability, the Economic Community of West African States and the West African Heads of State Club constitute reference groups with rights and privileges for memberstates. It is hypothesized that con…
Military Coups, Regime Change, and Interstate Conificts in West Africa
This article examines regime types and the impact of military coups and regime change on conflicts among West African states. The main hypothesis tested is that radical regimes threaten the relatively stable but soft states; counterthreat measures result in conflict situations. Analysis is made of threat perception, the interrelatedness of coups d'état, regime change, and conflicts against the backdrop of the theories of linkage politics and poli…
Ghana, 1982–6: The Politics of the P.N.D.C
The history of the past three decades in Africa would seem to confirm that the rôle of the military in political and economic development may no longer be considered transient. Armed interventions have become institutionalised, if not constitutionalised, in many African states. By December 1985 no less than 60 successful and 71 attempted coups d'état had occurred in 37 states since January 1956. 1 Just as most of the first generation of African p…
The U.S. and Ethiopia: The Politics of Military Assistance
This article concerns the military assistance relationship between the United States and Ethiopia, especially during the early years of the Ethiopian revolution, from 1974 to 1977. The interaction between the outbreak of the uprising and American military assistance and the impact of one upon the other are our main concerns. Besides the objective needs of the revolution to reorient Ethiopia's domestic and external politics, other important forces…
