Summary

Chapter 2 provides the historical and local background to the analysis. It describes political developments in the Central African Republic (CAR), Somaliland, and South Sudan before, during, and after colonization. These changes shape the way these countries’ respective political systems function today. The chapter then moves to the local level and provides a brief description of the key actors and issues at stake in each of the nine local security arenas. These case descriptions on the national and local level will form the basis of the analysis that follows.
