At this event on 16 May 2014 Dr. Jane Boulden discussed the findings from her edited volume Responding to Crisis in Africa: the United Nations and Regional Organizations which came out in a second edition in 2013.
With a particular focus on the implications of the nature of this UN-regional interaction for the UN, the talk affirmed some traditional assumptions about UN-regional cooperation while challenging others.
The event was co-sponsored by the Centre for International Studies (CIS), Oxford Network of Peace Studies (OxPeace), and the African Studies Centre.
