Democratization Experience in Africa

A Comparative Analysis in Anglophone and Francophone African Countries

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

From the 1960s when many African countries gained independence, evidence from several Anglophone African countries shows successful democratic experiences which intrinsically have a positive impact on their progressive development outcomes as opposed to their Francophone counterparts. This situation has necessitated controversies over what could be the causes, impacts and ways forward for Francophone and Anglophone African countries. A hypothesis was drawn from the premise that 'Anglophone' African countries have been asserted to be witnessing a comparatively higher degree of progress in democratization processes than 'Francophone' African countries since the 1990s. The various controversies surrounding the history and practice of democracy in Africa was reviewed from mainly published and unpublished documentaries. Theoretical reviews based on democratic practices will play a vital role in this analysis. Based on the fact that the issues discussed in this study are not exhaustiveto a certain extent, the points raised will help to contribute a quota to the controversy surrounding African democracy and may trigger other interesting discussions on African democratization!
