In this book, Antonia Witt looks at the legacy of the AU's intervention in Madagascar following the 2009 'Malagasy crisis', one of the increasingly relevant yet under-researched cases of non-Western intervention in Africa. The book looks at the ways in which international intervention reconfigured the political order in Madagascar, how it facilitated the power struggle within the Madagascan elite and prevented more profound political change. It also considers what the example set by the Madagascan intervention means for the wider international order in Africa and the powers attributed to African international actors such as the AU.
Reviews / Votes
A must read for any one interested in the critical challenges of the pan-African mechanism to promote democracy through the doctrine of non-indifference. It is an insightful analysis of the politics of Madagascar and AU policies. * Abu Bakarr Bah, Northern Illinois University * An exciting book, providing not only a rich account of the coup in Madagascar but also a fascinating analysis of African agency and the making of an "African international". An important contribution to ongoing efforts to make International Relations more international. * Rita Abrahamsen, University of Ottawa, Canada * Navigating between the extremities of "Afro-optimism" and "Afro-pessimism", Undoing Coups is a significant contribution to our understanding of African institutions as international and intentional actors that redefine sovereignty, democracy, and good governance. * Niklas Hultin, George Mason University, USA *More details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
