    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION The African Union (AU) succeeded the Organization of African Unity (OAU)‚ which was formed in 1963.

    Lasting peace and stability remains one thing that for a long time has eluded the African continent both in the pre colonial and the colonial era. The scourges of slave trade‚ inter-tribal warfare and more importantly the imposition of colonial rule on the people of Africa made peace and stability on the continent quite elusive. Obviously‚ one would foresee emancipation and independence as a sure way to relative peace and stability. Unfortunately‚ the post-colonial conflict situation on the continent

In South Africa‚ where the concept has come to be closely identified with the political perceptions of former President Thabo Mbeki‚ it has been received as a proposal for “African political renewal and economic regeneration” (Ajulu‚ 2001: 87). The concept can thus be viewed as a “rebirth”; a resurrection-since it has inspired
