The quest for peace in the Great Lakes region has never been more urgent. The region has become the home of violent and prolonged conflicts that have caused untold suffering and blocked any meaningful socio-economic progress. And yet no solution seems to be in sight. Attempts have been made to address the protracted and largely intractable confl icts that have affl icted the region for many years. Success has not been forthcoming. Earlier initiatives approached these conflicts on a case-by-case and state-by-state basis ignoring cases where the conflicts were interrelated and overlapping with reciprocal effects on the entire region. Understanding Obstacles to Peace highlights and draws the necessary linkages, and points out areas that can be utilized in working towards a regional and comprehensive settlement. The book points out the actors; their interests and strategies in the conflict formation and also gives recommendations for building long-lasting peace. It gives the historical and contextual dimension of every conflict, with specific references and will help in removing any stumbling blocks to peace in the region. Mwesiga Baregu is a professor of politics and international relations at the University of Dar-es-Salaam. He specialises in conflict studies and confl ict resolution, regional integration and international political economy.
