The book examines the Southern Africa Development Community's response to the outbreak of war in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1998, shortly after the DRC joined SADC. It highlights the complex social, economic, and political challenges faced by SADC member states, particularly during the military intervention that involved nine African countries and numerous armed groups. The conflict, resulting in 5.4 million deaths, is explored alongside the influence of foreign ideological interests stemming from the Cold War, providing a comprehensive analysis of the crisis's origins and impacts.
