“Meticulously researched and documented, Horace Campbell’s analysis convincingly connects the dots between NATO’s botched criminal operation in Libya, the global capitalist crisis, and the Western project for the recolonization of Africa. An essential handbook for Pan-Africanists and for the international peace and justice movement.”—Norman Girvan, Professor Emeritus, University of the West Indies

“Campbell has produced an authoritative analysis of NATO’s intervention in Libya. It’s original and prescient—one that all concerned scholars and students should read to comprehend this new trend in global militarism.”—Patricia Daley, University Lecturer in Human Geography, School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford
