"The African Union's Africa: New Pan-African Initiatives in Global
Governance "examines the initiatives of the Pan-African global
governance institution the African Union (AU) as the organization
and its precursor commemorate their Jubilee as international
actors. Taking a unique approach, the book seeks to explain the AU
through a theoretical framework referred to as "the African Union
phenomenon," capturing the international organization's efforts to
transform the national politics of Africa as well as to globalize
the practice of African politics. The authors examine Africa's
self-determined international norms and values such as
Pan-Africanism, African Solutions to African Problems, Hybrid
Democracy, Pax Africana, and the African Economic Community to
demonstrate that Africa--the world's least developed region--is
composed of crucial values, institutions, agents, actors, and
forces that are, through the AU, contributing to the advancement of
contemporary global development. The book reveals how in the areas
of cultural identity, democracy, security, and economic development
Africans are infusing new politics, economics, and cultures into
globalization representing the collective will and imprint of
African agency, decisions, ideas, identities, practices, and
contexts. Via a Pan-African vision, the AU is having both regional
and global impact, generating exciting possibilities and
complicated challenges.
