Abstract
Since President Yoweri Museveni captured Ugandan state power in 1986 with the promise of liberating the country from the travails of its colonial past, Ugandans have simultaneously experienced peace and war, prosperity as well as economic impoverishment, and a crisis in security alongside increased protection. Explaining how and why these opposing circumstances coexist, and exploring the ramifications for the future prospects of the country, are the shared subjects of the three books under review. Each offers novel theoretical approaches, tested by years of empirical research in the north and east of the country. Collectively, their conclusions challenge dominant national and international narratives about the nature of war and peace in Uganda in the last quarter-decade.
