Davis (international politics, Howard University) conducts a detailed examination of major terrorism in Africa and the country's relevance in the global war on terror. He and his co-contributors discuss why Africa has become such a fertile ground for terrorism from both internal and external perspectives by examining its political, ethnic, and religious tensions, as well as the use of African states as sanctuaries by terrorist organizations. Davis and his co-authors also examine the strategies and effectiveness of the Clinton and Bush administrations in combating terrorism in the country, and provide a detailed appraisal of the post-9/11 Combined Joint Task Force. In his conclusion Davis makes recommendations to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of the war on terror in Africa and to ensure the country's stability as the war continues. These include the need to prioritize critical issues such as HIV/AIDS and underdevelopment, end the continent's widespread political violence, and provide more economic assistance.
