- Making Sense of the Eritrean-Ethiopian War

During the war, both sides mobilized huge forces along their common borders and spent several hundred million dollars on military equipment.

It looks at the historical relations between the two countries since the late nineteenth century, the historical border issues from local perspectives, and the complicated relations between the former liberation fronts that subsequently formed the current governments of the two countries.
