  We study max-plus convexity in an Archimedean Riesz space $E$ with an order
unit $\un$; the definition of max-plus convex sets is algebraic and we do not
assume that $E$ has an {\it a priori} given topological structure. To the given
unit $\un$ one can associate two equivalent norms $\norm\cdot\norm_{\un}$ and
$\norm\cdot\norm_{\hun}$ on $E$; the distance ${\sf D}_{\hun}$ on $E$
associated to $\norm\cdot\norm_{\hun}$ is a geodesic distance for which
max-plus convex sets in $E$ are geodesically closed sets. Under suitable
assumptions, we establish max-plus versions of some fixed points and continuous
selection theorems that are well known for linear convex sets and we show that
hyperspaces of compact max-plus convex sets are Absolute Retracts.
