Description
This panel examines the functioning of African unity in practice. Its case studies question the reality of an 'African position' on the ICC, show how 'Greater Somalia' and 'Greater Ethiopia' projects have sat awkwardly alongside prevailing norms of African statehood, and examine the 'diplomatic' practice of national liberation movements. Some more overtly theoretical contributions examine the AU as a maker of subsidiary norms and the contribution of African states to global cybernorms.
