Complex Solutions to Local Problems
The Dilemma of the African Union in Somalia
Jude Cocodia
This book questions the dominant narrative used in stereotyping Africa and the status of Al-Shabaab in Somalia’s quest for peace. It trumps up local alternatives to solving conflicts on the continent and avers that it is possible to revert to these local mechanisms of governance and conflict resolution as has been done in Somaliland with positive results.
