This book was released on 2009 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American public was galvanized by the media depiction of tragic deaths and massive starvations in Biafra during the Nigeria-Biafra War. This situation was caused by malnutrition following the blockade of the rebel territory by the Nigerian Government. The U.S. activated a neutral policy toward the war by not supporting either of the sides. But the American public's attention was drawn to the war in the summer of 1968, about a year after the war broke out. The media at this time began paying more attention to the war by showing the extent of humanitarian crisis in the war which aroused public outrage and a call for the White House to change policy. By the fall of 1968 to the end of the war in January 1970, U.S. changed its policy of non-involvement and became more involved in the war. The Johnson administration which had seemed reluctant to get involved in the war was forced to abandon its neutral policy to adopt a policy of humanitarian intervention toward the tail end of his administration. Nixon who succeeded Johnson pursued a similar policy of humanitarian intervention in the war with few modifications. -- Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shepard argues that U.S. policy toward Nigeria has never had much to do with what was going on there or in Africa as a whole. Instead, U.S. policy makers have seen what they wanted to see and proceeded accordingly. He charts the changing face of a relationship which is in many ways typical of U.S. policy toward the nations of Africa. "... the lesser known Nigerian side of the relationship is presented in illuminating detail." --Foreign Affairs "... lucid and straightforward. It is well documented from sources both in the USA and Nigeria... highly recommended... " --The Round Table
Book Synopsis Pre-theories and Theories of Foreign Policy-making by : Emmanuel N. Amadife
Download or read book Pre-theories and Theories of Foreign Policy-making written by Emmanuel N. Amadife and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pre-Theories and Theories of Foreign Policy-Making provides the first comprehensive theoretical study focusing only on United States policy toward the Nigerian/Biafran conflict, which occurred from 1967-1970. This civil war was an important development in international politics, attracting the attention of all of the world powers, as the first major civil war not perceived as an ideological competition between East and West during the Cold War. Amadife probes the utility of James N. Rosenau's "pre-theory" discussion of foreign policy, exploring the tragic dilemma of policymakers who tried to balance the demands of traditional state-craft with those of humanitarian pressures. He compares the 1967 decision by the United States to remain neutral and not recognize Biafra, to the 1968 decision to extend humanitarian assistance to the war victims, to investigate whether they support Rosenau's pre-theory. Using the research methods of a historian and the theoretical framework of a political scientist, Amadife presents a useful and thorough examination of the U.S. involvement in the Nigerian conflict.

This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biafra's declaration of independence on May 30, 1967, precipitated a civil war with important implications for the territorial integrity of all newly independent African states. Allegations of genocide commanded the world's attention and brought forth unprecedented humanitarian intervention. This full account of the internationalization of that conflict draws on hitherto confidential records and more than two hundred interviews with foreign policymakers, including Yakubu Gowon and C. Odumegwu Ojukwu. Originally published in 1977.

Book Synopsis A History of the Republic of Biafra by : Samuel Fury Childs Daly
Download or read book A History of the Republic of Biafra written by Samuel Fury Childs Daly and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-27 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic of Biafra lasted for less than three years, but the war over its secession would contort Nigeria for decades to come. Samuel Fury Childs Daly examines the history of the Nigerian Civil War and its aftermath from an uncommon vantage point – the courtroom. Wartime Biafra was glutted with firearms, wracked by famine, and administered by a government that buckled under the weight of the conflict. In these dangerous conditions, many people survived by engaging in fraud, extortion, and armed violence. When the fighting ended in 1970, these survival tactics endured, even though Biafra itself disappeared from the map. Based on research using an original archive of legal records and oral histories, Daly catalogues how people navigated conditions of extreme hardship on the war front, and shows how the conditions of the Nigerian Civil War paved the way for the country's long experience of crime that was to follow.

Book Synopsis The Nigeria-Biafra War, OAU and the Politics of Diplomatic Recognition of Biafra, 1967 – 1970 by : Nwobi Obiora Isaac
Download or read book The Nigeria-Biafra War, OAU and the Politics of Diplomatic Recognition of Biafra, 1967 – 1970 written by Nwobi Obiora Isaac and published by Exceller Books. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A historical methodology of analysis that is thematic, chronological and descriptive was adopted in this study of the Nigeria - Biafra war of 1967 -1970 particular regarding the Organization of African Unity(OAU) and the Politics of Recognition given to Biafra during the Civil War. The focus of this book is to unearth the factors that propelled the four African states to declare support and accord de facto recognition to the Biafran regime against the OAU's position. The nature, dimension, significance and the implications of such recognition were also analyzed. The tittle of the work is not only interesting but inviting. It spans across the diverse disciplines of History, International Relations, Political Science and International Law. The results indicate as follows: (i) Diplomatic recognition of Biafra by four African state became an elixir to the prolongation of the Nigeria-Biafra war. (ii) The credibility of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) appeared severely tarnished given the contradictions inherent in its charter vis-a-vis the national interests and dispositions of some of its member nations. (iii) Nigeria’s insistence that the conflict was its internal affairs also presented another contradiction, as by so doing, Nigeria purported to be a judge in its own cause by way of adjudication and negotiations. (iv) The blockade and quarantine of Biafran territory meant to emasculate the economy and society of the secessionist enclave, inadvertently succeeded in galvanizing international sympathy for the Biafran cause; besides giving a lie to the aforementioned mantra of Nigeria’s internal affairs, as mentioned earlier. (v) Despite the enormous humanitarian question raised and sustained by the war, power politics and international realist perspective prevailed at the end.
Book Synopsis The Biafran Humanitarian Crisis, 1967–1970 by : Arua Oko Omaka
Download or read book The Biafran Humanitarian Crisis, 1967–1970 written by Arua Oko Omaka and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the Biafran humanitarian crisis of 1967–1970 which generated a surge of human rights anxieties and attracted the attention of world humanitarian organizations. For the first time in recent history, different church groups and humanitarian activists around the world came together for the sole purpose of alleviating human suffering and saving lives regardless of theological differences, race, ethnic affiliation, nationality, and geographical distance. Despite their role in shaping the course and outcome of the conflict, most scholars of the Nigeria-Biafra War treat the humanitarian aspect of the war as a footnote, making it appear less important among other issues of interest in the conflict. Notable exceptions, however, include Joseph Thomson’s American Policy and African Famine, which focuses on American policy on the humanitarian aid, and Reverend Tony Byrne’s Airlift to Biafra. This study underlines that the international humanitarian aid largely contributed to the internationalization of the war. The efforts of the churches from thirty-three countries which remain virtually unexplored was not just the first of its kind in the developing world but also the largest civilian airlift in history. While the paucity of scholarship on the humanitarian aspect of the Biafra war could be attributed to the newness of this field of enquiry, the increase in conflicts in different parts of the world has just opened humanitarian aid studies as a new frontier in academic study. This book is a masterful example of scholarship in this newly emergent field.
