Explore the complex legacy of French military intervention in post-colonial Chad. This essential African Studies volume meticulously details two decades of France’s involvement, revealing how counterinsurgency efforts, meant to stabilize regimes, ultimately weakened the Chadian state and invited Libyan ambitions. Understand the rise of Hissène Habré and the unintended consequences of French strategies that exacerbated conflict and intervention. Drawing on deep archival research, this book offers vital insights into decolonization and parallels to the ongoing ‘war on terrorism’ in the Sahel, making it indispensable for scholars and policy analysts.
