ABSTRACT
The history of Africa's violent conflicts and political instability has earned it the label
of being at war against itself. Today, its citizens are living in poverty and divided
societies. Over two million people have died in various political uprisings and civil
wars since the start of the decade. About 10 million have been affected by forced
migration. Various international organizations and policymakers are working to find
ways to prevent these types of conflicts from happening. They are also looking into
the root causes of these conflicts.
Through the efforts and contributions of academic experts, they have been able to
provide valuable information about the current state of global conflict. They have been
able to identify the various factors that have contributed to the rise of international
conflicts. Some of the prominent individuals involved in this research include
Boulding, Zartman, and Burton.
Through this research, the experts were able to identify the causes of the conflicts in
the two countries, such as those in the Ivory Coast and Sierra Leone. The study used
various sources such as academic papers, Internet sites, and historical documents to
analyze the various factors that contribute to the development of violent conflicts in
Africa. It concluded that economic and political factors are the main factors that
contribute to the instability of the conflict in Sierra Leone and Ivory Coast.
The study identified several factors that are needed to ensure that political and
economic stability can be achieved in the new millennium. These include adopting a
more pragmatic and realistic approach to governing and developing both countries
