Abstract
This paper investigates the recent increase in military coups in Africa and suggests potential actions the African Union and Western nations can take to address this issue. The study utilized a qualitative descriptive approach for data collection and analysis, while conflict theory was used to explain the problem at hand. The research discovered that the upsurge in military coups in Africa stems from both general and country-specific factors, such as ineffective governance under civilian rule, the dynamics of civil-military relations, external interests, and security threats instigated by external forces, including terrorism. The paper suggests that enhancing democracy and improving governance are the most effective means of preventing military coups, rather than shortening the lifespan of military regimes or hastening the transition from military to civilian rule. The African Union and Western nations should collaborate in addressing this issue through a comprehensive approach, which may require country-specific strategies
