            Abstract

            A central argument of this paper is that the conflicts in the Horn can be understood as a collision of geographical cycles: those established by the working out of local historical processes in the Horn; and those by the working out of historical processes at the global level, including crises in the international economy and the new Cold War. Weapons have been one of the crucial links between these cycles. They have also been central in the emergence of hegemonic cycles at the global level. Major powers aquire interests in global territory, airspace and oceans both to protect their own access to resources and to valorise their accumulation of arms and military power.
