Somalia: State Collapse and the Threat of Terrorism: State Collapse and the Threat of Terrorism

by Ken Menkhaus

This work explores Somalia's state collapse and the security threats posed by Somalia's prolonged crisis. Communities are reduced to lawlessness, and the interests of commercial elites have shifted towards rule of law, but not a revived central state. Terrorists have found Somalia inhospitable, using it mainly for short-term transshipment.
