Toward Sustainable Security in Africa

There are many theoretical arguments on the legitimacy, suitability and efficacy of African Indigenous peacemaking approaches (AIPA), but they exist in conceptually separate realms. Examining them in one connected and unified intellectual sequence brings into focus the imperative to mainstream these African approaches for Africa’s sustainable security. This is in fact the current cogent recommendation from the past and present research, practice, diplomatic and policy discourse on Africa’s peace. This collation of debates has stimulated a paradigm shift, from repetitive research on the nature, legitimacy and efficacy of African Indigenous peacemaking approaches to the research that ferrets out the factors that will facilitate their genuine institutionalization
