A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa). Prepared under the supervision of Dr Patrice Vahard, Faculty of Law, University of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia The author views that the complexity of conflict implies that the African Union’s engagement with conflict – both in understanding and managing it – will benefit from an approach informed by the theory of complexity. Discusses the following questions: (1) What normative framework currently informs the African system of conflict management? (2) Is complexity theory compatible with the analysis and management of conflict? (3) What are the implications for conflict analysis and management? (4) What would a complexity approach add to the African system? http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2008-11-24T13:48:15Z 2008-11-24T13:48:15Z 2008 Mini Dissertation Wicomb, W 2008, Testing the water while the house is on fire : a critical approach to the African Union conflict management system, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/8066> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/8066 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights, Law Faculty, University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria
