There is a new documentary about MINUSMA & #peacekeeping in #Mali.

The best documentary I know is "The peacekeepers", a very close-up shot about peacekeeping dysfunctionalities in the context of the Ituri crisis in the DRC, with lots of insights also from New York HQ

Is is rare that Africa features on the cover of The Economist, but it does, this week. I wonder how many African economists would subscribe to the call for a capitalist revolution.
