Cross-examining the Kagera War: A Plea for Multidirectional Postcolonialism

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Military historians can benefit from »multidirectional« postcolonial analyses, which open new possibilities for studying war and militarization. Gendered analysis of the 1978–1979 Kagera War between Tanzania and Uganda crosses the different registers of postcolonialism, inviting military historians to account for war’s multidirectional effects within one frame.
