This book uses the Kenyan political system to address issues
relevant to recent political developments throughout Africa.
The authors analyze the construction of the Moi state since 1978.
They show the marginalization of Kikuyu interests as the political
economy of Kenya has been reconstructed to benefit President Moi's
Kalenjin people and their allies. Mounting Kikuyu dissatisfaction
led to the growth of demands for multi-party democracy.
The book places contemporary Kenyan politics and the 1992 election
in their historical context, contrasting the present multi-party
era with the previous one during the sixties.
The authors question the hopes for a "second independence" in
Africa by demonstrating the problems faced by fledgling opposition
parties in weak civil societies.
