Abstract [eng] |
This study analyzes the diverse responses of African nations to the Russian Invasion of Ukraine with a focus on how these responses are discursively constructed and how the positions of African states reveal about Africa’s geopolitical landscape on the global order. Previous studies usually attribute African nations’ reactions to global issues to material interests or geographical alignments however, this thesis seeks to analyze these reactions from a constructivist angle, emphasizing how African states make use of discourse and how it constructs their identities with particular reference to the United Nations General Assembly resolutions, ES-11/1 to ES-11/5. |
