ResumoThis article examines the African Union's (AU) intervention in Burundi, in 2003, departing from the analysis of the common interests identified amongst African States.We analyze the development of AU and also how the institution played an intervenient role in the case, representing a convergence space among state actors, and achieving results with its mission AMIB (African Mission in Burundi) such as: reduction of transaction costs, lowering of information asymmetries and modification of advantage calculations made by the States involved.We finish by saying that the African Union (AU) represents a new phase of searching for more autonomy by the African continent when it comes to conflict resolution in the continent.The present study suggests the opening of paths to the analysis of other AU stances concerning similar questions.
