The Foundations of ‘Peace’ as a Value for the promotion of Human Rights in Africa
This article identifies ‘peace’ as a strategic value in promoting human
rights in Africa. The objective is to juxtapose the theoretical and practical
foundations of ‘peace’ as a conceptual basis for the promotion of human
rights into a substantive reality. The article does not examine the status of
Africa’s political context as such, an undertaking which will redirect the
envisaged assumption of the stability of African governments in the
regulation of state authority. The article is premised on the notion that
such stability may provide a foundation for ‘peace’ as a value that is likely
to create an environment conducive to greater respect for all human
rights.
