The Plunder and Depopulation of Central Africa

This is one of the most penetrating and important analyses of African poliics within wider context of imperial politics, that I have seen. It's not simplistic because it is accurate. And the reality of African and global politics is not simple. What we are presented via mass media is the simplistic, warped and superficial pictures that the profiteers and hirers of mercenaries -- that is, our developed-world governments -- wants us to see, so as to shape public opinion and blind public understanding.
