Description

Explore the complex history of the Congo through this academic study from the LSE International Studies Series. This book examines how the United Nations approached conflict resolution in Africa during the 1960s and how these actions connected to the broader Cold War. By focusing on the Congo, the text illustrates how maintaining existing economic and social structures became a central part of both the decolonisation process and Cold War tensions. It connects the international actions of Belgium, Britain, Angola, and the Central African Federation with the specific roles played by the United States and the United Nations. Readers will gain a better understanding of how the flow of supplies and the pursuit of profits from the Congo contributed to growing problems across Africa. This work is an essential resource for those studying military history, international relations, and the political shifts that shaped Central Africa during a period of massive global change.
