Description 1 online resource (12 pages) : maps Summary Africa is an increasingly important theater for geopolitical competition. The same conditions that benefit Salafi-jihadi groups also create openings for malign actors like the Russian Wagner Group. US policymakers should treat community security like public health, as a service provided to civilians that benefits Americans and Africans alike and helps maintain the world order that undergirds US freedom, safety, and prosperity. The United States should work with African partners to develop policy approaches for preventing Salafi-jihadi insurgencies from forming whenever possible and containing or rolling them back when necessary. These approaches will require changing the focus and risk tolerance of US security policy in Africa while reforming interagency coordination to facilitate this new approach Notes At head of title: Critical Threats "February 2023"--Cover Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 20-24) Notes Description based on online resource; title from PDF cover page (EAI, viewed February 19, 2023) Subject Jihad -- Prevention -- Social aspects Human security -- Africa Internal security -- Africa Terrorism -- Prevention -- Social aspects -- Africa Human security Internal security Africa Form Electronic book Author American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, publiser.
