Peacebuilding in Contemporary Africa explores the challenges and
opportunities faced by countries and societies transitioning from
armed conflicts to peace in contemporary Africa. It evaluates the
effectiveness, outcomes and failures of existing peacebuilding
initiatives implemented by stakeholders, and proposes new
strategies and approaches to facilitate the transition. The book
investigates both micro- and macro-level conflicts in various parts
of Africa, as well as the efforts made to resolve them and build
peace. The book pays particular attention to grassroots-based
micro-level conflicts often disregarded in peacebuilding
literature, which tends to focus on macro-level, neo-liberal state
reconstruction and peacebuilding efforts. The book adopts an
evidence-based, policy-relevant approach to peacebuilding in
Africa. The various chapter contributors offer a lucid analysis and
critique of some of the prevailing paradigms and strategies of
peacebuilding practiced in Africa. Together, the authors recommend
innovative strategies to mobilise and coordinate governance
institutions and partnerships at all levels (international,
regional, national, and local) to prevent conflict escalation in
volatile states and advance the rebuilding of violence-affected
states and communities. Peacebuilding in Contemporary Africa
provides a much-needed perspective from African scholars, and will
be of interest to students, researchers, policy makers and
practitioners with an interest in promoting legitimate policy
interventions and sustainable peace in Africa.
