About this Item

Neuware -The literature on democratization privileges the role of the internal factors and at best neglect the importance of the international factors. Such scholarships have emphasized a wide variety of domestic actors like the degree of state control, strength of civil society and role of the military.The need therefore to reexamine the increasing importance of the external dimension which seems neglected has been emphasized. By employing time tested theory this book offers a critical attempt at bringing such factors to light by critically assessing the role of the external factors in Ghana''s democratization process. This is done by subjecting two key players in Ghana''s democracy drive in the light of their democracy promotion effort and their effectiveness.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Such scholarships have emphasized a wide variety of domestic actors like the degree of state control, strength of civil society and role of the military.The need therefore to reexamine the increasing importance of the external dimension which seems neglected has been emphasized. By employing time tested theory this book offers a critical attempt at bringing such factors to light by critically assessing the role of the external factors in Ghana's democratization process. This is done by subjecting two key players in Ghana's democracy drive in the light of their democracy promotion effort and their effectiveness.
