Despite efforts to normalize its post-colonial relationship and the
downsizing of its permanent military presence, France remains a
sought-after security provider in Africa. This book uncovers
individual and collective motivations that drive French foreign and
security policy in Africa. It explains French interventionism by
drawing on actors' subjective perceptions of reality and seeks to
answer why French decision-makers are ready to accept the
considerable risks and costs involved in guaranteeing the security
of African countries. Adopting an actor-centric constructivist
ontology, the author traces the emergence and subsequent
development of ideas throughout the decision-making processes that
led to Operation Serval in Mali and Operation Sangaris in the
Central African Republic.
