Summary: This volume contains a selection of the original contributions and revised versions of the papers delivered during the international conference entitled ‘ The United Nations and Regional Challenges: Africa Years after Hammarskjöld’, jointly organised by the Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation and the Department of Political Sciences at the University of Pretoria. The legacy Dag Hammarskjöld created during his lifetime, however, transcends the efforts to re-investigate the circumstances of his death. His ethics, his concept of solidarity, his sense of fundamental universal values and human rights in combination with his respect for the multitude of identities within the human family have lost none of their value and relevance, and neither have the standards he set in discharging his responsibilities as the world’s highest international civil servant and in playing a global leadership role.
