Description

Surrender Or Starve: The Wars Behind The Famine offers a necessary perspective on the complex history of the Horn of Africa. While much of the mainstream media coverage of Ethiopia has focused on the Amharas in Addis Ababa, this book provides a different view to address the imbalance in news reporting. This work explores how famine serves as both a tool and an element of ethnic conflict. It examines the tensions between the Ethiopian Amharas of the central highlands and the Eritreans and Tigreans of the north. By looking at the situation from the other side, the author provides a deeper understanding of the regional dynamics during a critical time. Covering the period from late 1984 into the early 1990s, this book is an essential read for those studying African history, ethnic conflict, and the political drivers behind humanitarian crises. It provides the context needed to understand the true nature of the struggles occurring in the region.
