Since gaining independence from colonial rule, most African
countries have been struggling to build democratic and peaceful
states. While African multiparty politics may be viewed as a
democratic system of governance, in reality it is plagued by ethnic
and regional political grievances that undermine meaningful
democracy. By examining post-conflict institutional reforms in
several African countries, this book sheds light on the common
causes of violent conflicts and how institutional design can affect
the conditions for peace and democracy in Africa. Focussing on
conceptual and practical questions of designing ethnically and
regionally inclusive state institutions and the way institutions
are perceived by the citizenry Post-Conflict Institutional Design
addresses political autonomy and control over resources, issues
which are often key sources of ethnic and regional grievances.
Crucially, it examines the meanings of institutional reforms as
well ethnic and regional representation.
