[Somalia no longer represented an insurgency situation in any classical sense -- after the collapse of Siad Barre, there was no state to capture. The various clan-based groups "fought instead to maintain the power of their bosses, the autonomy of their clan followings, and a cut from the international aid which their own activities and the resulting destitution of the Somali people had attracted to the country." (p. 185).]
ibid. "The Political Economy of Conflict in the Horn of Africa," Survival vol XXXII, no 5 (September/ October 1990), pp. 403-419.
[The author presents many compelling observations on the complicated Somali situation: "In the case of Somalia, both ethnic identity and access to political power are deeply affected by the ambivalence between a unifying Somali nationalism on one hand, and the persistence of clan-based identities on the other." I.M. Lewis is cited on this. The author examines the current fight against Siad Barre and notes that "Somalis from almost all major clan groups have at one time or another enjoyed prominent positions in national politics, and may presumably expect to do so in the future." pp.409-410. Clapham reasons that (a)"reason why such impoverished societies (are) able to keep fighting for so long (is)the ability of both governments and insurgents to extract resources from the international economy." In Somalia, Siad Barre was able to sustain his suppression of the north by systematically exaggerating the number of refugees -- working out food aid "by a process of diplomatic negotiation between the Somali government and the UNHCR." Another interesting quote: "The principles and policies that they have pursued, whether these take the form of Marxist-Leninism or the implementation of Sharia law, may all be seen as mechanisms intended to reinforce their own control over their subject populations." p. 414.]

The report notes that, even with a concentrated program of mine removal, the mines will present public safety problems for years to come.]
