Paperback. Condition: New. According to conventional wisdom, France's empire in sub- Saharan Africa ended peacefully. But this book tells a different story. The shocking violence of a secret war roiled Cameroon in the 1950s and '60s. A mass movement for self-determination had emerged under the leadership of the Union of the Peoples of Cameroon (UPC), and France responded with brutal repression. As in Algeria, French forces waged a bloody counterinsurgency campaign. They eventually eradicated the opposition and installed a client dictatorship in the capital, Yaoundé.With the world focused on the Algerian bloodbath, the conflict in Cameroon received little attention at the time. Its devastating aftermath - and tens of thousands of victims - were intentionally obscured by French authorities and their local collaborators. The Cameroon War uncovers this hidden history. It illuminates a forgotten struggle for decolonisation at the origin of neocolonial rule in Francophone Africa, a story that is still unfolding today.

Couverture souple. Condition: Neuf. # Poche : 976 pages # Parution : janvier 2019 # Dans les années 1950 et 1960, les dirigeants français ont mené au Cameroun une guerre secrète. Pour garder la mainmise sur ce pays clé de son empire, la France a inventé une politique africaine néocoloniale. Alors qu'elle écrasait dans le sang le mouvement nationaliste porté par l'Union des populations du Cameroun (UPC), elle octroya au pays une " indépendance " de façade et plaça à sa tête une dictature " amie ". S'appuyant sur d'innombrables témoignages et des milliers d'archives, les auteurs détaillent les étapes de cette guerre méconnue. Ils racontent comment furent assassinés les leaders de l'UPC : Ruben Um Nyobè en 1958, Félix Moumié en 1960 et Ernest Ouandié en 1971. Ils montrent comment l'administration et l'armée françaises, avec leurs relais locaux, ont conduit une effroyable répression : bombardements des populations, escadrons de la mort, lavage de cerveau, torture généralisée, etc. Et ils expliquent finalement pourquoi cette guerre, qui a fait des dizaines de milliers de morts, a transformé le Cameroun en laboratoire de la " Françafrique ", ce pacte néocolonial grâce auquel les élites françaises et africaines s'accaparent les richesses du continent et privent les peuples de leurs droits. #.
