Description
Surrender Or Starve examines famine in the Horn of Africa as both a tool and manifestation of ethnic conflict between Ethiopian Amharas in the central highlands and Eritrean and Tigrean populations in the north. Published by Routledge, this historical account challenges the predominantly one-sided coverage by U.S. journalists reporting from Addis Ababa by presenting perspectives from the overlooked northern regions. Covering the critical period from late 1984 through early 1987, the book addresses a significant imbalance in international news reporting and provides essential context for understanding the complex relationship between warfare, political control, and humanitarian crises in East Africa. This work offers readers a more complete and nuanced understanding of the geopolitical and ethnic dimensions underlying one of the decade's most devastating famines.

Key Features

The book presents perspectives from Eritrean and Tigrean communities often absent from Western media coverage of the period.

Covers the crucial period from late 1984 to early 1987, documenting warfare and its humanitarian consequences in Ethiopia.
