Ivory Coast: Trying to break a bloody cycle, TIME (2010)

This article discusses the causes and the outcomes of the election-related violence that erupted in Ivory Coast. The author discusses the role of the other African leaders, who adopted a new approach in dealing with this situation. Instead of mediating and imposing a power-sharing agreement (like in Zimbabwe and Kenya), the leaders in the African Union decided to shun President Laurent Gbagbo. According to the author and to many Africa analysts, this strategy represents a break from the past, and could ultimately be successful in forcing the despotic president to resign.
