The ongoing conflict in Afghanistan poses a great danger to the Afghanistan state itself as well as for the neighboring countries. A decreasing interest from the United States of America, NATO and other key players due to a long war and other geopolitical challenges will leave Afghanistan with the minimum outer support for the future. The science of conflict resolution is offering a variety of theories that could lead endless wars and conflicts to an end. The ongoing conflict in Afghanistan is challenging those theories, while the resolution is crucial for the Afghanistan people right now. But are those theories reflected in the current actions of the US, NATO and Afghanistan governments? And do those theoretical actions lead to a better future regarding conflict resolution?

This volume is an attempt to analyse the causes of violent conflict in Africa, to review the various approaches to conflict prevention and conflict resolution and to discuss some of the practical difficulties in ending violence. It brings together a wide range of scholars and practitioners, with specialist knowledge of a large number of African countries. The intention here is to provide a survey of the various approaches to conflict in Africa, a systematic discussion of some of the root causes of violence, as well as case studies on the consequences of violence and the effects of conflict resolution

Conflict prevention was high on the agendas of both the EU & the UN in 2001, resulting in the release of major reports & ensuing high-level debates. The reports document the efforts of the EU & the UN to practically implement their new commitment to conflict prevention. Both the EU & the UN have emphasized long-term preventive efforts focused on the root causes of armed conflicts. This calls for an integrated approach & improved coordination among actors. In practice, however, this is difficult as preventive efforts in West Africa & Zimbabwe illustrate. The annex lists figures for current multilateral peace operations in 2001. For the first time since 1996 no new UN peace operation was launched. The limited size & scope of the five new multilateral missions meanwhile illustrate the increasing caution of the international states & organizations toward new operations as the costs of such commitments are realized. 1 Figure, 1 Appendix.
