本文叙述1989年12月24日利比里亚爆发的内战,当时100多名声称效忠于查尔斯·泰勒领导的利比里亚全国爱国阵线(爱国阵线)的战士从科特迪瓦越过边界,进攻宁巴州的布托镇。本文探讨了利比里亚如何陷入冲突以及为何采取如此暴力的形式。报告调查了自爱国阵线入侵以来发生的政治和军事事件,注意到政府的垮台、1990年8月伊科观察团干预部队抵达蒙罗维亚、多伊总统被约翰逊亲王的利比里亚独立民族爱国阵线(爱国阵线)谋杀、民解运动的作用、利比里亚民族解放运动的影响、利比里亚民族解放运动的(争取民主联合解放运动),一个由在塞拉利昂避难的利比里亚人于1991年成立的组织,军阀的出现,谈判的进展和1993年7月《科托努和平雅阁》之后的事态发展。它表明,战争的原因不仅是政治上的,而且也可以用宗教或精神方面来解释。文章中的大部分资料是1994年7月到利比里亚实地考察时获得的。注释,参考
This article deals with the civil war which broke out in Liberia on 24 December 1989, when 100 or more fighters claiming allegiance to the National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL), led by Charles Taylor, advanced over the border from Cote d'Ivoire to attack the town of Butuo in Nimba County. The article examines how Liberia descended into conflict and why it took such violent form. It surveys the political and military events that took place since the NPFL invasion, paying attention to the collapse of the government, the arrival of the Ecomog intervention force in Monrovia in August 1990, the murder of President Doe by Prince Johnson's Independent National Patriotic Front of Liberia (INPFL), the role of Ulimo (United Liberation Movement for Democracy), an organization formed in 1991 by Liberians who had taken refuge in Sierra Leone, the emergence of warlords, the progress of negotiations and developments following the Cotonou Peace Accord of July 1993. It suggests that the causes of the war are not only political, but may also be explained in religious or spiritual terms. Much of the information in the article was acquired during a field trip to Liberia in July 1994. Notes, ref
