Book Synopsis Uganda’s Worst Political Turmoil, as Our Beloved Country-Uganda, Is Under Siege, by the Tutsi- Rwandese Rebels Who Entered Uganda as Refugees Years Ago. by : Mica Kiribedda
Download or read book Uganda’s Worst Political Turmoil, as Our Beloved Country-Uganda, Is Under Siege, by the Tutsi- Rwandese Rebels Who Entered Uganda as Refugees Years Ago. written by Mica Kiribedda and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about a shocking revelation of a sovereign country- Uganda, which is under abominable siege, by a foreign occupation army from Rwanda, with its diabolic criminal gang, who entered Uganda as refugees, including the so-called General Yoweri Museveni. It was alleged that they fled their country Rwanda escaping the Hutu's heightened political tensions and repressions in the 60s, under J. Habyarimana's regime. By the time Uganda gained its Independence from the British in 1962, it was unthinkable, why the British who were watching the massive Tutsi-Rwanda influx into Uganda yet, they could not stop it, why? But in 1980, the Tutsi-Rwanda ethnic groups had organized themselves and formed their military front -the NRA/RPU-Rwanda Patriotic Unity under Yoweri Museveni, the guerrilla warfare Leader. The NRA/RPU waged guerrilla warfare against the Government forces commanded by General Tito Okello until he was defeated, and so, they seized power by the barrel of the gun in 1986. It was a terrible miscalculated scenario as nobody could dare question the Guerrilla army their legality and mandate to govern the country. It was a hoax. General Museveni's totalitarian, the-ruthless regime, has deliberately destroyed the country to its foundation and sold whatever the national assets available, and looted whatever they could get hold of, yet, they have committed heinous and unspeakable atrocities to the citizens of Uganda. They have committed crimes against humanity, with Museveni's fatality list around a million lives. This book is a whistle blower to the world, that Uganda ceased to be a sovereign country from February 1986, the period General Museveni seized power from Ugandans and the country is under siege since. Finally, Ugandans appeal to the International Community, United Nations, and African Unity and all peace-loving people in the world, to come to the Ugandans'resque as General Museveni's diabolic -the ruthless regime is waiting to crush and slaughter thousands of demonstrators at the country's general election, their only hope to liberate Uganda from the foreign forces of Tutsi-Rwanda' s army of occupation. The International Community's intervention is essential to avert another Rwanda genocide in Uganda.

Book Synopsis Advancing the Ugandan Economy by : Ezra Sabiti Suruma
Download or read book Advancing the Ugandan Economy written by Ezra Sabiti Suruma and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internal conflicts, dictatorship, and economic disintegration characterized the first twenty-five years of Uganda's independence from British colonial rule, which culminated in the reign of Idi Amin and a violent civil war. The country has since achieved an astounding turnaround of stability and growth. Advancing the Ugandan Economy is a first-hand look at the remarkable policy changes that took place from 1986 to 2012 and their effect in contrast with the turbulent events after independence. Ezra Suruma held several key positions in the Ugandan government during the nation's transition period, including minister of finance. His insightful recounting of those times demonstrates that African countries can achieve economic stability and sustain rapid growth when they meet at least two interdependent conditions: establishing a stable and secure political framework and unleashing entrepreneurialism. Suruma also highlights the strategic areas that still require fundamental reform if Uganda is to become a modern state and shares his vision for the future of his country. Rarely in African history has so much positive political and economic transformation of a country been achieved in such a short time. Suruma's account of the commitment, determination, vision, and dexterity of the Ugandan government holds invaluable lessons in managing the still complex policy challenges facing the African continent.
Book Synopsis In Idi Amin’s Shadow by : Alicia C. Decker
Download or read book In Idi Amin’s Shadow written by Alicia C. Decker and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Idi Amin’s Shadow is a rich social history examining Ugandan women’s complex and sometimes paradoxical relationship to Amin’s military state. Based on more than one hundred interviews with women who survived the regime, as well as a wide range of primary sources, this book reveals how the violence of Amin’s militarism resulted in both opportunities and challenges for women. Some assumed positions of political power or became successful entrepreneurs, while others endured sexual assault or experienced the trauma of watching their brothers, husbands, or sons “disappeared” by the state’s security forces. In Idi Amin’s Shadow considers the crucial ways that gender informed and was informed by the ideology and practice of militarism in this period. By exploring this relationship, Alicia C. Decker offers a nuanced interpretation of Amin’s Uganda and the lives of the women who experienced and survived its violence. Each chapter begins with the story of one woman whose experience illuminates some larger theme of the book. In this way, it becomes clear that the politics of military rule were highly relevant to women and gender relations, just as the politics of gender were central to militarism. By drawing upon critical security studies, feminist studies, and violence studies, Decker demonstrates that Amin’s dictatorship was far more complex and his rule much more strategic than most observers have ever imagined.

Book Synopsis Crisis, Adjustment and Growth in Uganda by : Arne Bigsten
Download or read book Crisis, Adjustment and Growth in Uganda written by Arne Bigsten and published by Springer. This book was released on 1999-06-23 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uganda in the 1970s and early 1980s was one of Africa's more tragic economic stories. Emerging from civil war, it had to embark on reform in the early to mid-1980s from a position of severe political weakness. In the study, the effects of economic policy at the aggregate level are discussed in detail, but 'snapshot' empirical analyses of responses at the household level, both urban and rural, are also presented. Uganda was for many years considered to be Africa's 'worst case'; its recent recovery thus provides hope for similar countries in the region.

Book Synopsis Crisis of Legitimacy and Political Violence in Uganda, 1890 to 1979 by : Ogenga Otunnu

This book was released on 2016-12-26 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates that societies experiencing prolonged and severe crises of legitimacy are prone to intense and persistent political violence. The most significant factor accounting for the persistence of intense political violence in Uganda is the severe crisis of legitimacy of the state, its institutions, political incumbents and their challengers. This crisis of legitimacy, which is shaped by both internal and external forces, past and present, accounts for the remarkable continuity in the history of political violence since the construction of the state.
