Abstract

In April 2021, Egypt and Sudan announced the failure of the African Union (au)-led negotiations over the filling and operation of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (gerd). Why did the au fail to achieve progress on the contested issues in spite of the parties’ rhetorical commitment to settle these issues, the mediation capacity that the au developed over the last decade, and its comparative advantage as a regional organization close to the dispute? This article addresses this question. It integrates regional conflict resolution literature and water diplomacy approaches to identify the conditions of successful mediation in transboundary water conflicts, a task which contributes to ongoing au efforts to learn from past mediation experiences.

非洲跨界河流冲突的区域调解:评估非洲联盟在复兴大坝谈判中的作用
2021年4月,埃及和苏丹宣布,非洲联盟(au)主导的关于大埃塞俄比亚复兴大坝(gerd)蓄水和运营的谈判失败。为什么非盟未能在争议问题上取得进展,尽管各方口头上承诺解决这些问题,非盟在过去十年中发展了调解能力,以及它作为一个接近争端的区域组织的比较优势?本文解决了这个问题。它整合了区域冲突解决文献和水外交方法,以确定成功调解跨界水冲突的条件,这项任务有助于非盟不断努力学习过去的调解经验。

期刊介绍: International Negotiation: A Journal of Theory and Practice examines negotiation from many perspectives, to explore its theoretical foundations and to promote its practical application. It addresses the processes of negotiation relating to political, security, environmental, ethnic, economic, business, legal, scientific and cultural issues and conflicts among nations, international and regional organisations, multinational corporations and other non-state parties. Conceptually, the Journal confronts the difficult task of developing interdisciplinary theories and models of the negotiation process and its desired outcome.
