Reviews
"Thompson has revised and updated to 2014 his doctoral dissertation of 1984 to 'contribute to an understanding of the international relations of two African states and the wider international implications of the conflict.' What is portrayed by Somalis as a territorial and human rights dispute concerning the irredentist aspirations of their ethnic kin in Kenya's Northern Frontier District is defined by Kenya as a border disagreement involving security, stability, and migrants. The author narrates and analyzes this polarization of positions in detail and includes a vast amount of information about the internal politics of both Kenya and Somalia. He also discusses the important role of Ethiopia with its own Somali population and that of the Organization of African Unity, now the African Union, struggling diplomatically with the sensitive issue of established colonial boundaries." -- Choice Reviews, Thompson has revised and updated to 2014 his doctoral dissertation of 1984 to 'contribute to an understanding of the international relations of two African states and the wider international implications of the conflict.'

Synopsis
Conflict in the Horn of Africa examines how the Kenya-Somalia border problem has deep roots in pre-colonial and colonial times. This book documents the Kenya-Somalia border problem from the nineteenth century, when decisions ignored African concerns, to independence, when Africans acted as the principal players., Conflict in the Horn of Africa examines how the Kenya-Somalia border problem has deep roots in pre-colonial and colonial times mirroring the phenomenon of shifting territorial and human frontiers and treaties which Britain, France, Italy, and Ethiopia made before and after World Wars I and II. This book documents the Kenya-Somalia border problem from the nineteenth century, when decisions ignored African concerns, to independence, when Africans acted as the principal players. Vincent Bakpetu Thompson analyses how the crises regarding Kenya and Somalia's domestic situations impacted their international relations in and beyond the region. This book furthers the discussion by looking at the current problems in the region that are obscured by instability, infiltrations, the repetitive influx of refugees crossing and re-crossing the border, and increasing terrorist attacks.
