Supported by a diverse and international mix of perspectives and professions, the book presents a view of MINURSO rooted in practical experience on the ground. The authors reveal the complexities of the region and the mission at a local level, but also analyse MINURSO through a global prism. This approach underlines the importance of the region as an arena for international struggle, while remaining aware of local contexts. This book is essential reading for practitioners and academics interested in the Western Sahara conflict and the MENA region, but will also be of interest to those interested in international relations and security studies.
