TY - JOUR ID - 1216618 AU - Kříž, Zdeněk - Černohous, Tomáš PY - 2014 TI - African Union as a Platform of African Conflict Management JF - Obrana a strategie VL - 14 IS - 2 SP - 5-15 EP - 5-15 PB - Univerzita obrany SN - 12146463 KW - African Union KW - African Peace and Security Architecture KW - conflict management KW - security N2 - The article focuses on assessing the ability of the African Union to perform the policy, peacekeeping and peacemaking roles within its conflict management doctrine and it also discusses whether African security problems may be more easily solved by the AU as an organization with a continental profile or by some other African organization on lower level. According to authors, the AU suffers from similar deficits as local regional organizations, which considerably restrict its efficiency and make the gap between AU’s security mandate and the sources for its achievement, but it manages to perform the conflict management activities to a far greater degree than any other African organization at a much lower level has ever managed. With regard to that, the authors suggest an ideal profile of an actor capable of solving Africa’s security problems in the form of the AU and its African Peace and Security Architecture representing a platform of equal cooperation of the Union with regional organizations and combining the advantages of both of these actors’ approach towards conflict management.
