Abstract
The persistent and consistent trend in the U.S. peace mediation in Africa has been chiefly characterized by the U.S. economic
interests in Africa. Hence, it has always followed the consistent trend
of who gets what, when and how, at the expense of the harangued and
impoverished African masses. It is also observed that the interest of
America in conflict resolution
in the war torn regions of Africa is made expedient in order to
safe-guard U.S. nationals in the region, and to protect their
investments from destruction. Hence, economic considerations are placed
over human and corporate existence and survival of Africans.
Premised on these assertions therefore, this study sets out to
investigate the dynamics of U.S involvements at peace mediation in
Africa, and the Nigeria civil war in particular. As an instrument of political enquiry, this discourse employs the Marxian political economy
paradigm, which investigates the super-positioning of the social
substructure (economy) over the super-structure (politics, etc). Hence
we arrived at the conclusion that America’s interest in Africa, and her
involvements at peace mediation and
conflict resolutions are informed by her economic interests in Africa.
As a method of data collection, we employed the observation method of
the political enquiry. We made use of already existing materials, such
as documents, textbooks, internet materials, etc, as our secondary
sources of information.
