Africa's Quest for Reform of the United Nations Security Council: Vitalities and Pitfalls
暫譯: 非洲對聯合國安全理事會改革的追求：活力與陷阱

This book discusses Africa's call for reform of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) based on a decolonization perspective as opposed to the mainstream history of International Organizations (IOs). It advocates for the decolonization of IO history arguing that the roots of the UNSC are deeply colonial. Africa was virtually absent when the UN was founded. However, with the demise of colonialism and the subsequent admission of African states to the UN, the African group now has 54 members. With Africa as the main focus of the SC discussion agenda, its exclusion from permanent membership is a glaring anomaly. While Africa's demand to reform the UNSC based on the Ezulwini Consensus, especially immediate veto acquisition, is not easily achievable, the book offers important insights on why this demand is important.
