It is theoretically original in its insistence on radical reading of state formation as related to violence and irreducible to the formal state apparatus. It is a long-term study of transformations – building on fieldwork from 1998 onwards – which surpasses a number of other relevant studies from Mozambique (Obarrio, West, Kyed, for instance). It systematically construes contemporary processes and historical trajectories from the margins and is consistent in not adapting a view from the country’s centre, Maputo -- such a Maputo-view informing the majority of studies in and on Mozambique.
