An excerpt from the thesis:
Conflict remains a major security problem in Africa. Africa continues to have the greatest number of armed conflicts of any continent. In mid – 2001, latent or open hostilities affected Angola, Burundi, Chad, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Djibouti, Eritrea- Ethiopia, Guinea, Liberia, Sierra-Leone, Somalia, to mention but a few. Some of these conflicts have persisted despite UN PKO operations while in some cases the conflicts reopen on withdrawal of UN peacekeepers.
