Description
The 1976-1992 civil war which opposed the Government of Frelimo and the Renamo guerrillas is a central event in the history of Mozambique. This book re-evaluates the period by looking at the conflict as a 'total social phenomena'that involved all elements of society and impacted on every aspect of life in the country. Focusing on local dynamics, the volume examines not only Frelimo and Renamo but also actors such as private, popular and state militias, the Catholic Church, NGOs and traders. Based on a wholly new set of sources, the book uncovers new dimensions of the civil war and offers an alternative narrative and explanatory framework for the conflict and its actors as well asa solid background for understanding the nature of peacemaking in Mozambique, contemporary politics and the current conflict in the country.
