The December issue focuses on the East African cases of Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, with some attention paid to recent developments in DR-Congo. This regional focus provides insights into countries whose internal volatility and drivers of conflict are significant both regionally and in discerning broader patterns and processes across Africa. The issue's special focus feature looks at Al Shabaab militancy in Kenya and Somalia, and analyzes the historical trajectory of the group and more recent patterns in conflict that may point to future developments and new geographies of violence for the group.
