Abstract
:
"Tracing the evolution of UN peacekeeping, this volume explores its historical background and, by way of pertinent case studies, focuses on the changing nature of UN peacekeeping with particular reference to Africa, a continent that has been instrumental in shaping theory and practice." "The book provides a comprehensive and critical analysis of both the capacity of the African Regional Intergovernmental Organizations in collective security peacekeeping, conflict management and resolution, and the collaboration between the UN and ECOWAS in Liberia and Sierra Leone."--BOOK JACKET.
