| Annotation | Contents: Introduction: blue berets, burning brushfires -- The stealing of Suez and the Sahara: the UN in North Africa -- "No more Congos!" the UN in the Great Lakes region -- Orphans of the cold war: the UN in southern Africa -- The tragic triplets: the UN in West Africa -- The conflicts of identity: the UN on the Horn of Africa -- Conclusion: from burden shedding to burden sharing. Summary: This history of UN peacekeeping operations in Africa from the 1950s to the present explores the political machinations of the world body and the undercurrents of racism, western exceptionalism, and paternalist first-world policies that have led to a disastrous record for UN Peacekeeping in the region. Topics discussed include the effects of the Cold War on African projects, operational paralysis in the face of past failures, and the ability of regional peacekeeping entities to provide local responses where the international community is unable or unwilling. Adebajo is the executive director of the Centre for Conflict Resolution at the University of Cape Town and is one of the world's preeminent experts on peacekeeping in Africa.
