撒哈拉以南非洲地区非国家冲突的形成

Abstract:Since the end of the Cold War，non-state conflicts in sub-Saharan Africa have grown rapidly and become the main form of conflicts.Non-state conflicts can be divided into three types：conflicts between illegal armed groups，conflicts between outside armed groups and local militia and private armed forces，and conflicts between local militia and private armed forces.Among them，the increase of the third type poses a great challenge to the security governance of sub-Saharan Africa.The formation and growth of non-state conflicts in sub-Saharan Africa lie in the low national security capacity，which mainly reflected in the low national military expenditure，leading to the socialization and spread of violence，the sinking of security supply or the privatization of security.Fundamentally speaking，the emergence and prevalence of non-state conflicts are due to the deep-rooted fractured state-social relations in the region.The proliferation of non-state conflicts is a complex product of sub-Saharan Africa's history and reality，local and external factors.To a large extent，it has also changed the security situation of the African continent and affected the future security governance structure.Therefore，the international community should pay more attention to it.
