| Description: | Confronting Leviathan describes Mozambique's attempt to construct a socialist society in one African country on the back of an anti-colonial struggle for national independence. In explaining the failure of this effort, the authors suggest reasons why the socialist vision of the ruling party, Frelimo, lacked resonance with Mozambican society. |
| Key Points: | The authors analyse the more recent attempt to construct a liberal capitalist society in Mozambique. From their findings it appears that this may prove no easier than the construction of socialism. |
