ABSTRACT
Peacekeeping operations have assumed a centre stage in the operation of International Organization as a veritable instrument for maintaining International Peace and security. The United Nations
and other regional and sub-regional organizations have adopted these
measures in their efforts to secure peace in the major conflict states
of the world. The Liberian
crisis which is the subject of this study was one of such cases in
which the measures was applied to maintain peace by the Economic
Community of West Africa State (ECOWAS). The Liberian crisis which started as an entirely ethnic conflict involving the
indigenous ethnic Liberians who constitute the majority of the
population and the Afro-America settlers who were settled in Liberia
following the abolition of slave trade in America and who have dominated
the political scene in the country since their arrival in 1821. The
Liberians crisis escalated in 1980 when Samuel Doe
staged a coup that brought the ethnic majority of the Liberian to
power. The conflict assumed a wider dimension following the involvement
of other extraneous forces around Liberians, a situation which the
ECOWAS leaders thought would lead to the war spreading to other
countries in the sub-region. This study examined the operations of the
peacekeeping body- the ECOMOG
which ECOWAS established for the purpose of securing peace in Liberia.
For its explanatory tool, the study adopted the theory of collective
Security. The choice of this theory is informed by the fact that it best
explains the decision of ECOWAS as a sub-regional body to work for peace
within the sub-region. The theory of collective security rest on the
assumption that all nations share a primary interest in maintaining
International Peace and Security. This work is basically an analytical
survey study and in the case it precludes all forms of statistical
process in both data collection and data analysis. In this regard, conflict analysis
of the mass of data collection from library sources was adopted in the
study. The major findings of the study include the fact that the
domination of political power by the Afro-America
Liberians is at the root of the conflict in the country. The study also
discovered that poor funding and the colonial orientations of the
various forces contributing states in ECOWAS adversely affected the
operation of ECOMOG in Liberia. The study recommends that the Leaders of
ECOWAS should establish more integrated peacekeeping forces with
training in language and cultures of the Nations in the sub-region.
