Abstract:
This title is an exploration of the Eritrean struggle for independence from Ethiopia in the late 20th century. The book focuses on the way the Eritrean revolution drew refugees and exiles from the United States and nationalist guerilla fighters in the Horn of Africa together in a common, yet contested political project.
