Between 1990 and 2015, several hundred competitive legislative and presidential elections were held in all but a handful of the region's countries. This book is the first comprehensive comparative analysis of the key issues, actors, and trends in these elections over the last quarter century. The book asks: what motivates African citizens to vote? What issues do candidates campaign on? How has the turn to regular elections promoted greater democracy? Has regular electoral competition made a difference for the welfare of citizens? The authors argue that regular elections have both caused significant changes in African politics and been influenced in turn by a rapidly changing continent - even if few of the political systems that now convene elections can be considered democratic, and even if many old features of African politics persist.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 153mmItem Width: 18mmItem Weight: 480gAuthor: Jaimie Bleck, Nicolas van de WalleGenre: Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
