Angola at the Crossroads
«In this brilliant work, Dr Rui Santos Verde portrays the last years of the Dos Santos family's power until its removal, and the rugged beginnings of the so-called Transition. A passionate narrative that guides us through the intricacies of Angolan law and economics, demonstrating total mastery of sources, combined with a rare power of analysis. Angola at Crossroads reads with as much pleasure as it does with benefit, constituting a provocative reflection, now when some distressing questions about the future of Angola arise. Indispensable reading for anyone who wants to understand what is to come.»
