FOLLOWING the end of the cold war, numerous observers thought that Western countries would be more inclined to support peacekeeping missions in the developing world, particularly in Africa. The consequential compromise between African and Western leaders is, nowadays, to "Africanize" the peacekeeping missions in Africa by sending African troops supported by the international community on the ground.
