Algeria's veiled drama
Article Abstract:
Three new books that tackle the Algerian crisis have been released. One book, written by Michael Willis, explores the politics of the Islamist challenge in the country, while another, written by William B. Quandt examines Algeria's transition from authoritarianism. The third book, written by Luis Martinez, looks into the militarization of Algerian life in the 1990s. All three books provide fresh insights into the Algerian situation and the factional struggles that have sparked off sporadic waves of violence in various parts of the country since 1988.
