"ABSTRACTThe paper advances the reason for an inclusive review of what constitutes African culture in view of the impact of globalization on the continent of Africa. Culture is a significant aspect of the African social system. It is the platform for asserting Africanity. The paper is motivated by George Herbert Meads theory of symbolic interactionism whose core concern is mutual inclusivity. African culture has undergone different stages of modification. What constituted African culture in the 19th century, for example, is not what constitutes it in the present day. The paper, therefore, argues the need for African culture to embrace and coexist with the Western contact which globalization has occasioned. Such inclusivity is capable of making the continent of Africa affirm its Africanness and as such, its relevance on the global stage. A historical periodization of the cultures evolution is undertaken, resulting in the emergence of such categories as primitive African culture, traditional African culture and contemporary African culture. Also, the paper laments the inherent contradiction in the presentday African cultural practices whereby Africans live by Western values in their realities but condemn the West according to the principle of nationalism. Following this, it is proposed that African culture should liberalize and permit the indispensable visiting Western worldview to coexist with it. African spiritualism, arts and ethics are identified as the most enduring of all the elements of African culture, needed for Africas technology, iconic identity, and rectitude, respectively."

"African Union merupakan sebuah institusi regional di kawasan afrika yang lahir dari kesadaran negara-negara Afrika bahwa terdapat kebutuhan akan pengaturan terhadap kawasan tersebut. Termasuk dalam bidang yang ditangani oleh AU adalah bidang keamanan. Eksistensi AU diharapkan menjadi sebuah pengaturan keamanan yg dapat membantu mewujudkan kawasan Afrika yang stabil, aman, dan terbebas dari konflik. Paradigma realisme, liberalisme, dan konstruktivisme memiliki pandangan yang berbeda mengenai bentuk dan sifat sebuah institusi keamanan. Realisme dengan teori collective defense nya memandang sebuah institusi keamanan sebagai sebuah institusi dimana anggotaanggotanya membentuk sebuah aliansi militer yang memiliki tujuan pembentukan yang jelas. Liberalisme dengan teori collective security nya memandang institusi keamanan sebagai sebuah bentukan institusi yang menjaga anggota-anggota nya untuk saling menjaga perilaku dan kebijakan agar tidak saling berbenturan satu dengan lainnya. Sedangkan konstruktivisme dengan teori security community nya memandang institusi keamanan sebagai sebuah bentukan yang mendorong negara negara anggota nya untuk tidak menggunakan tindakan koersif dalam segala kebijakan penanganan konfliknya. Karya tulis ini akan menganalisa sifat bentukan AU sebagai sebuah institusi keamanan regional di kawasan Afrika melalui ketiga teori tersebut.

African Union is a regional institution in Africa born as a form of African country's realization in needs of a better system in the region. Security is one of the issue that became AU's consideration. There is a hope that AU's existance could take a role as a security management in order to create a stable, save, and free-from-conflict Africa. Realism, Liberalism, and Constructivism have a different way to see the formation and characteristic of a security institution. Realism with a collective defense theory believe that security institution is a form of institution where the members are united in a military alliance. Liberalism with collective security theory believe that the main purpose of a security institution is to keep the member's from violating one another. While constructivism with security community theory believe that members of security institution need to build a non-coersive action policy in order to create the real peace in the region. Focus of this thesis is to analyzing characteristic of AU as a regional security institution in Africa using the three theory mentioned above."
