Africanizing Democracies examines the ways in which Africans have
constructed and reshaped democracy in order to fit their own
political ideals and agendas. Analyzing political democratization
in this vast continent-which is home to fifty-five sovereign
countries-the book includes voices of Africans from all walks of
life and utilizes a wide variety of primary sources, including
newspaper articles, speeches, memoirs, films, letters, and
photographs. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of
democratization in Africa, demonstrating how the process has had a
significant impact on the continent's economic, social, and
cultural landscape. Africanizing Democracies looks at
democratization in relation to such topics as the end of apartheid,
the role of women in politics, the Arab Spring, debt relief and
humanitarian aid, China's growing involvement in Africa, HIV/AIDS
and other significant health concerns, feminism and LGBT activism,
and peace and security issues, among others.
