THE INFLUENCE OF DIPLOMACY ON CONTROVERSIES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN DIPLOMATIC MEDIATION AND ARMED CONFLICT

Journal Title: Brazilian Journal of African Studies - Year 2020, Vol 5, Issue 9

Abstract

The article seeks to understand the influences of diplomacy in controversies. We observe cases in the African continent, which are detected in the same geographical space, followed by the proximity of dates and, finally, similar controversies, in which there were distinct diplomatic choices between mediation and confrontation. It is concluded that diplomacy, mediation and armed conflict are choices of the political system in which we are inserted. They are tools to obtain power, influence and money in a geopolitical space where states fight or cooperate with each other for a specific purpose.
