Reflections on Somaliland & Africa's Territorial Order

Ian S. Spears

Review of African Political Economy, 2003, vol. 30, issue 95, 89-98

Abstract: This article examines the arguments for and against reforming the African state system in order to create more viable and peaceful states. It argues that while such a process has the potential to be enormously disruptive, selective recognition of some 'states-within-states', such as Somaliland, does offer promising approaches to more effective governance and more viable and coherent states.
