Paperback. Condition: New. A 2023 Choice Reviews Outstanding Academic TitleAfrica beyond Liberal Democracy: In Search of Context-Relevant Models of Democracy for the Twenty-First Century explores possible future trajectories of democratization on the continent. At the dawn of political independence in the late 1950s and early 1960s, many countries in Africa set out with liberal democratic constitutions. However, these were quickly dismantled by civilian regimes that turned their countries into one-party autocracies, or by military coups that set aside the constitutions altogether. The 1990s saw an attempt at reverting to competitive multi-party politics through the so-called second-generation constitutions, but these are again being dismantled by civilian autocracies and military juntas.In this collection, edited by Reginald M. J. Oduor, African and Africanist scholars examine the view that what has failed in Africa is liberal democracy rather than democracy as such, because liberal democracy arose in an individualist socio-political Western context that is significantly different from the communalist milieu of African societies. The contributors, from a variety of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences, andbased in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Nigeria, Ghana, India, Sweden, and Finland, present a range of perspectives on possible directions for context-relevant models of democracy in the various countries of Africa in the twenty-first century.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book employs the tools of philosophical reflection to examine a number of ethical issues that arise from the endeavours of ethnic minorities to get greater space in the Kenyan polity, or even to exit the Kenyan state to form new states or to join other states that would better serve their interests. It contends that along with the rights of the individual citizen exalted in liberal democratic societies such as those in Western Europe and North America, Kenya's constitution must adequately recognise ethnic rights if the country is to effectively address the rampant discontent among members of her numerous ethnic minorities who feel perpetually marginalised in the country's economic, social and political life. If you are new to Kenyan politics, read this book and acquaint yourself with the intriguing yet agonising realities of a post-colonial cosmopolitan African society struggling to be at peace with itself. If you are a seasoned scholar of Kenyan politics, read this book and get an opportunity to reflect on the philosophical issues that are so often ignored by empirical studies of Kenyan politics.
