R. Maxwell Bone’s Biography

have written and published on topics relating to African Affairs and International Politics for a wide variety of publications. These include The New Humanitarian, The Diplomat, Foreign Policy, World Politics Review, African Arguments, and Radio Free Europe/ Radio Free Liberty. I have provided on-air commentary to France 24, and my work has been cited in a wide variety of news outlets and scholarly publications. I write extensively on the Anglophone Crisis in Cameroon and maintain in-depth relationships with civil society and parties to the conflict. I have briefed the U.S. and European governments on the conflict. My writing ranges from research-based articles on topics including North Korea’s relationship with African states to in-depth reporting on the ongoing Anglophone Crisis in Cameroon. I have traveled extensively and lived in both Cameroon and Morocco. I speak fluent Spanish and French, and an intermediate Moroccan Arabic and Swahili.

I hold a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in African Studies from the University of Cambridge where I am a member of Jesus College. My MPhil is a research-based degree, with the majority of my mark being based on my dissertation. I wrote my dissertation on the emergence of secessionist violence in the two Anglophone Cameroon and relied heavily on my networks amongst parties to the conflict to conduct my research. At Cambridge, I was a member of Amnesty International’s Digital Verification Corps (DVC) where I was trained in geolocation. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in International Affairs from the Elliott School of International Affairs at the George Washington University.
