Originally published in 2004. Genocide in Rwanda, massive floods of
refugees and displaced people in the Horn of Africa, violent civil
wars in the West African countries of Sierra Leone and Liberia -
these are testimonies to the tremendous cost to grassroots
communities when the authority and legitimacy of national political
systems and leaders are called into question. The consolidation of
democracy represents one tangible strategy to restore authority and
legitimacy of political rule, providing the peace and security
necessary for political enfranchisement and economic opportunity.
This volume explores the factors that are crucial to the emergence
of democratic political systems on the African continent,
specifically focusing on Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. It highlights
the political challenges facing these countries during this crucial
transition period, and provides insights that are applicable to
other countries engaged in this process in Africa and beyond.
