Abstract
The central thrust of this article is to demonstrate the significance of ethnic conflicts as a prominent feature in international relations since the end of the Cold War in 1990. In the process of analysing this, it provides an insight into the nature and dimensions of ethnic conflicts. It also went a step further by examining the impact of ethnic conflicts on international relations vis ¬ a –vis the impact of international relations on ethnic conflicts. It posits that ethnic conflicts will continue to have both regional and global implications beyond the country it originates in the foreseeable future. The international community should continue to intervene in internal politics, this is imperative as individual states are less likely to manage the security threats emanating from ethnic conflicts.
