1. Security and Governance in the Great Lakes Region: An Introduction -- 2. Burundi: Between War and Negative Peace -- 3. The Democratic Republic of the Congo: An Elusive Peace -- 4. Rwanda: Setting the Stage for the 2017 and Beyond -- 5. Uganda in the Great Lakes Region: Obstacles to Peace and Security -- 6. The African Union's Role in Maintaining Peace and Security in the Great Lakes Region -- 7. The European Union and the Great Lakes Region: Constraints and Inconsistencies -- 8. The United Nations in the Great Lakes Region -- 9. Conclusions: Reversing the Spirals of Conflict and Instability in the Great Lakes Region.

The book probes major security and governance trends in Africa's Great Lakes region since the 1990s. It examines political dynamics in key states - Burundi, the DRC, Rwanda, and Uganda - as well as the role of international actors such as the AU, the EU, and the UN, thereby providing a unique perspective on efforts towards regional peace and prosperity. The authors suggest that while the region has made tremendous progress, it faces continuing challenges (including reversals in governance) that threaten future regional security.
