Gender and conflict management in Africa

This publication dedicated to women, is undoubtedly one of the largest thematic books on the endogenous experience in sustainable conflict management. It aims to demonstrate that women are true armies in the service of peace and development, in a context where the "Conflict Management Division" of the African Union (AU) adopted in December 2011, a set of "Standard Operating Procedures" in support of mediation. Reflecting existing socio-community best practices in conflict resolution, the analytical models proposed in this book, refer to the need to reinvent international African conflict management from endogenous realities. In this sense, the women peacemakers' mediation initiative is another way, different from official conflict resolution procedures. This so-called collaborative and inclusive mechanism is in the wake of marginal and informal negotiations from below, in the era of so-called cognitive justice. The book allows us to glimpse the paths of a mathematical theory of catastrophes that René Thom talks about in the field of irenology and polemology.
