Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

In 2007, Martin Luther Agwai was deployed to Darfur as Force Commander of UNAMID, which, as the first African Union\u2013UN hybrid mission, was to become the largest peacekeeping operation in the world. Four years earlier, Darfur had imploded, descending into violent conflicts. The international community \u2013 in the form of both activists and state actors \u2013 felt it could not remain uninvolved lest a genocide on the scale of Rwanda occurred. Despite such lofty intentions, UNAMID proved to be high on promise but low on commitment and delivery. Ultimately, it failed to address the conflicts taking place, much less build a sustainable peace.\nAgwai provides unique insight into what went wrong in Darfur, and the myriad challenges facing international peacekeeping operations more generally.
