Infos

There was a profound shift in peace and security norms from the African Union (AU) to the Organization of African Unity (OAU). Prevailing explanations of this change focus on the post-Cold War period; whereas this book traces the emergence of norms from the OAU through to the AU arguing that they emerged from within Africa.
