这本书认为,为了更好地理解尼日尔三角洲冲突的暗流,有必要从奥戈尼和伊贾人采取的不同行动中分析选择的动态。鉴于类似的结构限制,作者思考为什么奥戈尼人采取非暴力抵抗,而伊贾人采取暴力抵抗。这本书分为七个章节,从介绍非洲冲突中的石油和政治暴力开始,包括对非洲其他四个资源丰富国家的概要概述。然后提出冲突的理论和概念基础,目的是将尼日尔三角洲冲突置于更广泛的冲突文献中。第三章集中讨论尼日利亚尼日尔三角洲,概述了争论中心的核心问题。接下来的三章对非暴力与暴力叙事、领导风格的本质以及奥戈尼和伊贾运动的组织之间的相互作用进行了深入的实证分析,并给出了最后一章。
The book argues that in order to better understand the undercurrents of the Niger Delta conflict, it is imperative to analyse the dynamics of choice in terms of the distinct courses of action taken by the Ogoni and Ijaw. Given the similar structural constraints, the author considers why the Ogoni adopted nonviolent resistance, and the Ijaw violent resistance. This book is divided into seven chapters starting with an introduction to oil and political violence in African conflicts, and includes a synoptic overview of four other resource-rich countries in Africa. Theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of conflict are then presented with the aim of situating the Niger Delta conflicts within the wider conflict literature. Chapter Three concentrates the discussion on the Nigerian Niger Delta, outlining the core issues at the centre of the contestations. The following three chapters offer an in-depth empirical analysis on the interaction between the narratives on nonviolence versus violence, the nature of leadership styles, and the organisation of the Ogoni and Ijaw movements along with a concluding chapter.
