Terror and Insurgency in the Sahara-Sahel Region [PDF ebook] 
Corruption, Contraband, Jihad and the Mali War of 2012-2013

Covering such issues as Islamist terrorism, border insecurity, contraband, and human trafficking, this book looks at the interrelated problems of political and social pathologies that affect terrorist movements and security in the Sahara-Sahel region. A valuable publication, it treats a series of related problems on the basis of a broadly defined area, with a special emphasis on the role of Islam as both a moderating and exacerbating factor.
