This provides an annotated bibliography of the Nigerian group Boko Haram. The bibliography doesn’t include newspaper or online news stories. I’ve included links where possible, and indicated if pieces are open access or require subscription. Thanks to those who have sent me pieces or links – I’d welcome corrections and further suggestions.

Created 14 February 2013; updated 27 March 2013 – added Agbiboa (2013); Anonymous 2012; Blanquart (2012); Gartenstein-Ross (2012); Kashi and Watts (2008); Lyman (2009); Musa (2012); Nwanegbo and Odigbo (2013); Onapajo and Uzodike 2012; Onapago, Uzodike and Whetho 2012; Omitola (2012); Pham (2011b); Ubhenin (2012); Yusha’u (2012); updated 24 May 2013 – added Adibe (2012); Agbiboa (2013); Idowu (2013); Mantzikos (2010).

For those new to the topic, I’d suggest that Davis, Pham 2012 and Walker are the best places to start (all open access), perhaps followed by one of the Adesoji pieces and Elkaim, Omede and Thomson. Robertson is a disturbing indication of possible U.S.-led pre-emptive interventions.
