Dynastic Rule in Equatorial Guinea

Foreward by Joseph Mangarella

Beschreibung

The emergence of hereditary republican dynasties is part of a regional trend, raising concerns about the decline in democracy, government accountability, nepotism, and grand corruption. Second generation dynasts now rule in Democratic Republic of Congo, Djibouti, Gabon, and Togo. Often treated as exceptional aberrations, or theorized under other conceptual tools, this essay examines Equatorial Guinea as a case of dynastic republicanism.
