Violence between Christians and Muslims has left over a 1,000 dead in the Central African Republic. Many commentators are saying the state is in meltdown. The CAR is a former French colony which gained independence in 1960. But the former colonial power has maintained armed forces in the country. France has repeatedly intervened militarily since independence and continues to engage similarly. Today we look behind the current conflict at the roots of instability in the Central African Republic. Welcome back to Analysis where we've been looking at the crisis in the Central African Republic where inter-communal violence has raised concerns that the state may be about to slide into chaos. Joining John Rees to discuss this are Dr Berny Sèbe, Lecturer in colonial and post-colonial studies at The University of Birmingham, Lydie Boka of StrategiCo, and James Schneider, Editor of Think Africa Press.
