Description:	In the later decades of the twentieth century, Africa plunged into chaos. States failed, governments became predators, and citizens took up arms. InWhen Things Fell Apart, Robert H. Bates advances an explanation of state failure in Africa. In so doing, he plumbs the depths of the continent’s late-century tragedy, the logic of political order, and the foundations of the state. This book covers a wide range of territory by drawing on materials from Rwanda, Sudan, Liberia, and Congo. Written to be accessible to the general reader, it is nonetheless a must-read for scholars and policymakers concerned with conflict and state failure.
