n African Journal on Conflict Resolution - Foreword

Abstract

After our previous edition (4.2), which was a special one on Electoral systems, Elections and Conflict Mitigation in Southern Africa, this edition (5.1) is a regular one again, but it happens to have a theme too. Although no topic was suggested to authors or used to select material, the articles and even the book reviews included in this issue appear to be interrelated around the theme of interrelatedness. One can of course dismiss this as a mere coincidence.
