Abstract:Empirical evidence indicates that most African countries are engaged neither in conflict with neighbouring states, nor in an arms race; indeed, there emerges, for whatever reasons, a pattern of military restraint. It appears that some form of arms limitation is functioning among many African states and that rapid growth of armaments is confined to a few countries. Notes, ref., tab.
