| Summary/Abstract |
Debates on intervention and sovereignty since 1945 can be summarised as a tale of two cities, San Francisco and Bandung, and of two countries, Rwanda and Libya. All are symbolic of different phases of these debates. The UN was born in San Francisco in 1945 with very little substantive participation by Asian and African governments. The great powers established a system in which they would determine when, where and how military interventions could take place. The 1955 Bandung Conference saw Asian and African countries seek to use new norms of intervention to regain their sovereignty. The 1994 Rwandan genocide, however, forced African countries to dilute notions of absolute sovereignty to allow military interventions for human protection purposes. The 2011 NATO military intervention in Libya did potentially irreparable damage to future UN-mandated interventions and was widely seen in the Global South as an abuse of the responsibility to protect (R2P).

| Summary/Abstract |
The Kenyan scholar Ali Mazrui presented the idea of a "Pax Africana" in a seminal 1967 study, arguing that Africans should muster the will to create and consolidate peace on their own continent. Mazrui wrote in the aftermath of the Congo crisis of 1960-64, when the United Nations was struggling to keep peace amid a traumatic civil war. The fact that the world body still struggles with peacekeeping in the same country, four decades later, is an eloquent metaphor for the arduous and continuing quest for a Pax Africana. Peacekeeping efforts in Africa are often portrayed in Manichean terms. They are either spectacular "successes," as with the short-term victory of a 3,000-strong Southern African Development
Community (SADC) force that routed the M23 rebels in eastern Congo as part of a UN mission in 2013; or else they are spectacular "failures," as with the current inability of 2,000 French troops and about 6,000 Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS) peacekeepers-"rehatted" as UN troops-to stop sectarian massacres in the Central African Republic. UN missions in South Sudan (some 8,500 troops) and Sudan's Darfur region (more than 19,000 troops) are also counted as failures.
