This book explores France's African intervention policy and related
legitimation strategies through the United Nations, the European
Union, and various ad hoc multilateral frameworks. France's
enduring ability to project military power on the African continent
and influence political events there has been central to its
self-perception as a major power. However, since the end of the
cold war, France's paternalistic interference has been increasingly
questioned, not least by African audiences. This has produced a
gradual and somewhat reluctant turn to multilateralism on the part
of French leaders. Drawing on in-depth case studies of recent
French intervention policy, this edited volume critically assesses
France's efforts to reassure critics by securing multilateral
endorsements; share burdens and liabilities through collective
implementation; and re-affirm its status as a major power by
spearheading complex missions. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Strategic
Studies.
