The purpose of this book is to project diplomacy as an unavoidable instrument for monitoring, prevention and control of health and disaster risks among African countries. The book advocates health cooperation in Africa at a time when pandemics are recurrent. Outside of the WHO, many countries, even within regional groupings have not actively pursued health cooperation. We intend this book to provide the basis for advocating the inclusion of health diplomacy in the curricula of the training of the African diplomat with the hope to stimulate gradual policy shifts in foreign ministries, regional groupings, and the African Union.
In this book, the reader is introduced to the concepts of politics, government, political theory and political culture with reference to Cameroon. Defined as human activity concerned with controversies over public questions and the resolution of those controversies, politics is concerned with the affairs of government and because government action deeply affects us, we take a lively interest in what governments do. We form associations and organize campaigns to articulate our demands. We negotiate with others and try to shape the goals that governments pursue. When we disagree with the policies of the government, we protest and organize demonstration to persuade our governments to change the...
How can sustainable peace be achieved? The book identifies potential supranational, state and non-state actors involved in peacebuilding processes. Further - more, it develops strategies to address the problems and dilemmas of international peacebuilding. An important contribution to a highly topical debate. Hopes for a less conflict-prone world after the end of the Cold War were bitterly disappointed. Instead, the international community is faced with protracted wars and violent conflicts today. In addition, social, economic and cultural insecurities as well as fragile statehood challenge the post-Westphalian environment. As a result, scholars and policy-makers alike are trying to develop viable strategies for sustainable peace. The book contributes to this debate, as it illustrates current research results on the topic and addresses the complex problems and dilemmas that various international peace - building actors are confronted with.
This study examines the African Union's peacekeeping role in managing African conflicts. Based on a qualitative research methodology, it analyses AU peace operations in Burundi and Somalia, and hybrid peacekeeping in Darfur, in order to identify the lessons learned and suggest how future outcomes may be improved.

Second volet d'un ouvrage précédemment édité en 1995, ce Cahier se propose de donner l'écho des travaux historiques nombreux et importants qui sont conduits dans les Universités francophones d'Afrique. Consultables dans les différents centres locaux, la plupart d'entre eux ne sont malheureusement pas publiés. Pourtant, on retrouve au coeur de ces mémoires et de ces thèses un patrimoine scientifique essentiel, dont il importe que tous les chercheurs africains et africanistes aient connaissance afin de les utiliser, de les confondre et de connaître les grands courants d'enquête actuels.
L'Afrique a malheureusement été le théâtre de nombreux conflits, dus au legs de la période coloniale et de la traite négrière, mais aussi à cause des répercussions des migrations incontrôlées, de l'injustice sociale, de la corruption, de l'autoritarisme des dirigeants etc. Le plus important, c'est l'enseignement qu'on en tire et les décisions que l'on prend pour en sortir afin de construire un avenir plus probant et prometteur pour les générations futures.
