Peacebuilding in Africa: The Post-Conflict State and Its Multidimensional Crises argues that building enduring peace in post-conflict states in Africa requires comprehensive, state-specific approaches that address the multidimensional crises that generated civil conflict and instabilities in these countries. Contributors examine states such as Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, and Sudan to demonstrate that peacebuilding projects in each of these states must address the cultural, economic, political, and social root causes of their respective underlying civil conflicts. In addition, contributors prove that peacebuilding projects must be shaped by the centrality of human security: the respect for ethno-cultural diversity, the advancement of human material well-being, the protection of political rights and civil liberties, and the redesigning of the military and security architecture to ensure the safety of all citizens from both internal and external threats.

Considering the publication to be very useful and timely, four equally distinguished scholarly endorsers in the fields ofpolitical science and history have described the 272-page book as being influential as well as remarkable, brilliant, and a cutting-edge anthology. Peacebuilding in Africa: The Post-Conflict State and Its Multidimensional Crises is a publication that should benefit college students at all levels as well as mainstream researchers, practitioners and the general reader, who wishes to enjoy the latest intellectual excursion into Africa’s many civil wars, their conclusions and the lessons expected to be learned.
