The peacekeeping project in Africa is then described on a region by region basis - Central Africa, Southern Africa, West Africa, the Horn and Trans-Saharan Africa - with comparisons and contrasts within and between each part of Postwar world.Peacekeeping forcesHistoryInternational organizationHistoryAfricaHistory1960-AfricaPolitics and government1960-Electronic books.Peacekeeping forcesHistory.International organizationHistory.355.3/57/096MacQueen Norrie1950-,596137MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464628803321United Nations peacekeeping in Africa since 19602235549UNINA
