NEW BOOK ON MALI

Our Vice-President Dr Poulton, widely known in Ségou and in Bamako by his Malian name “Macky Tall” – has published a major work on Modern Malian history and terrorism in the Sahara, written together with an Italian researcher on Mali Dr Raffaella Greco Tonegutti, an expert on migrations. They have already published together about Mali in Italian: Silencio su Bamako (Eds Ruitoni, Rome, 2013)

Ask your local library to order a copy of this book for you:

Poulton, Robin Edward and Rafaella Greco Tonegutti. The Limits of Democracy and the Postcolonial Nation State: Mali's democratic experiment falters, while jihad and terrorism grow in the Sahara. Lewiston NY & Lampeter, UK: Mellen Press, October 2016.

Professor Jeremy Keenan writes from SOAS London: “… (ref) your book. I must say that it is absolutely superb - a brilliant piece. It really is an excellent - eye-opening - piece of work. And I love the layout - chapter structures, headings and conversations, etc. I cannot praise it too highly. It is without doubt the best work ever written on contemporary Mali. congratulations on a fabulous piece of work.”
