  • “Investigating the Causes of Civil Wars in Sub-Saharan Africa” Case Study: the Central African Republic and South Sudan
    al Science tic & li P o u P b f l i o c l A a f Journal of Political Sciences & Public n f r a u i r o s J ISSN: 2332-0761 Affairs Review Article “Investigating the Causes of Civil Wars in Sub-Saharan Africa” Case Study: The Central African Republic and South Sudan Agberndifor Evaristus Department Political Science and International Relations, Istanbul Aydin University, Istanbul, Turkey ABSTRACT Civil wars are not new and they predate the modern nation states. From the time when nations gathered in well- defined or near defined geographical locations, there has always been internal wrangling between the citizens and the state for reasons that might not be very different from place to place. However, the tensions have always mounted up such that people took to the streets first to protest and sometimes, the immaturity of the government to listen to the demands of the people radicalized them for bloodshed. This paper shall empirically examine the cause of civil wars in Sub-Saharan Africa having at the back of its thoughts that civil wars are most times associated to political, economic and ethnic incentives. This paper shall try in empirical terms using data from already established research to prove these points. Firstly, it shall explain its independent variables which apparently are some underlying causes of civil wars. Secondly, it shall consider the dense literature review of civil wars and shall look at some definitions, theories of civil wars and data presented on a series of countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. Lastly, it shall isolate two countries that will make up its comparative analysis and the explanations of its dependent variable by which it shall seek to understand what caused the outbreaks of civil wars in those two countries.

  • NSOH Christopher NDIKUM (Phd) Associate Professor of Political Science Head of Department of International Relations and Conflict Resolution-University of Buea
    NSOH Christopher NDIKUM (PhD) Associate Professor of Political Science Head of Department of International Relations And Conflict Resolution-University of Buea Benin Conference 2018 Topic: Discuss the Political Situation of Cameroon Introduction: Cameroon is a country divided into ten regions. She is today faced with many challenges in her different regions. These regions are the Northern where the Boko Haram terrorist phenomenon is found since 2014, in the Eastern, where a large number of refugees from the Republic of Central Africa are based since 2013 and in the North West/South West regions where there is the conflict known today as the Anglophone problem which started since the reunification of the two peoples-The Southern Cameroons and the Republic of Cameroon. Respectable ladies and gentlemen, permit me draw your attention to the fact that with the collapse of the cold war, the international community thought it was time to address the issues of human rights and democracy that were plaguing the world. Little did the international community foresee the coming of 1. The war against terror, 2. Climate change and 3. The eruption of intra-conflicts. Cameroon is a victim of these three challenges. I will peruse the Cameroon political situation today in addressing some of these challenges and the issue of refugees. It does not mean that the one that will not be treated is of little value. In this 1 exposé, I will present, 1. Refugee crisis in the Eastern region, 2. Boko Haram Phenomenon and 3. The Anglophone problem. 4. The recent Presidential elections that just took place on the 7th of October 2018.

  • The Perception and Ramifications of Boko Haram's Activities on Cameroon
    Issue 5, October 2013 Cameroon. Too Much to Carry: The Perception and Ramifications of Boko Haram’s Activities on Cameroon Walter Gam NKWI Abstract. This paper examines the activities and consequences of Boko Haram in Nigeria and how it is perceived and conceived in Cameroon within the government circles and the local population. It further focuses on the historical roots of the Boko Haram. Using internet sources, secondary data and personal observations, the paper contends that this conflict, like most conflicts in human history, has a spill-over effect which has affected Cameroon in a significant way. Both the government and local population have to a large extent been affected by the activities of Boko Haram. Key words: Boko Haram, Cameroon, Nigeria, Yaounde Summit, ECOWAS, West Africa, Gulf of Guinea, Piracy. Introduction: Objectives; Understanding Boko Haram Two unrelated events have inspired me to write to this paper. First, from Monday 24 to Tuesday 25 June 2013, twenty-five West African and Central African heads of State met in Yaoundé, Cameroon for the summit on Maritime Security in the Gulf of Guinea. This was meant to coordinate their efforts in addressing illegal activities in the region that have recently surpassed Somali piracy. Walter Gam NKWI, PhD The challenge facing the Yaoundé Summit, University of Buea, one of the most important ever held in Cameroon Africa, was to provide a coordinated re- gional and international response to the Conflict Studies Quarterly scourges of piracy, drug trafficking, armed Issue 5, October 2013, pp. 67-87 robbery and other illegal maritime activi- ties in the Gulf of Guinea.

These regions of Cameroon have been restive since 2016 in what is popularly referred to as the Anglophone crisis. The crisis has been transformed to a separatist movement, with some Anglophones clamoring for an independent No-So, re-baptized as “Ambazonia”. The purpose of the study is to illuminate the geopolitical perspective of the conflict which has been evaded by many scholars. Most scholarly write-ups have rather focused on the causes, course, consequences and international interventions in the crisis, with little attention to the geopolitical undertones. In terms of methodology, the paper makes use of qualitative data analysis. Unlike previous research works that link the unfolding of the crisis to Anglophone marginalization, historical and cultural difference, the findings from this paper reveals that the strategic location of No-So, the presence of resources, demographic considerations and other geopolitical parameters are proving to be responsible for the heightening of the Anglophone crisis in Cameroon and in favour of the quest for an independent Ambazonia.

    Urban-bias and the Roots of Political Instablity: The case for the strategic importance of the rural periphery in sub-Saharan Africa By Beth Sharon Rabinowitz A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Steven K. Vogel, Chair Professor Michael Watts Professor Robert Price Professor Catherine Boone Fall 2013 COPYRIGHT Abstract Urban-bias and the Roots of Political Instablity: The case for the strategic importance of the rural periphery in sub-Saharan Africa By Beth Sharon Rabinowitz Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Steven K. Vogel, Chair Urban-bias and the Roots of Political Instability: the case for the strategic importance of the rural periphery in sub-Saharan Africa seeks to unravel a conundrum in African politics. Since the 1980s, we have witnessed two contradictory trends: on the one hand, coups, which have become rare events world-wide, have continued to proliferate in the region; concurrently, several African countries – such as Ghana, Uganda, Burkina Faso and Benin – have managed to escape from seemingly insurmountable coup-traps. What explains this divergence? To address these contradictory trends, I focus initially on Ghana and Cote d‟Ivoire, neighboring states, with comparable populations, topographies, and economies that have experienced contrasting trajectories. While Ghana suffered five consecutive coups from the 1966 to 1981, Cote d‟Ivoire was an oasis of stability and prosperity. However, by the end of the 20th century, Ghana had emerged as one of the few stable two-party democracies on the continent, as Cote d‟Ivoire slid into civil war.

For this reason, I intend for this project to be read with the assumption that I bring a privileged, Western perspective to this conflict that affects the livelihood of millions in Cameroon. I aspire to recontextualize and bring awareness to the Anglophone Crisis for an audience of Americans, to challenge their perceptions on an issue that is not extensively represented in media in the United States.
