Reviews

This timely, well-researched, and well-constructed book assesses the institutional evolution of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) into the African Union (AU) and its role in conflict management and peace operations. ... Scholars and students, peacemakers and policy makers will all find much to contemplate here. Highly recommended for university and larger public library systems and collections supporting programs in African and international studies, peace, and security. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above. (J. P. Smaldone, Choice, Vol. 53 (5), January, 2016) Isiaka Badmus provides a thorough, detailed account of how the African Union became involved in peace support operations, and how those missions evolved. This book will become the standard reference on the AU's seminal missions in Burundi, Somalia and Darfur, and how the AU has come to play an integral role in peacekeeping in Africa. - Alexander de Waal, Executive Director of the World Peace Foundation
