Democratization and Military Coups in Africa: Post-1990 Political
Conflicts studies the seemingly endless cycle of coups that have
occurred in Africa since the "Free Officers Coup" of 1952 in Egypt.
Unfortunately, after more than three decades of the "third wave of
democratization" that began in the 1990's, military coups remain a
firm figure on the African political landscape. Although the
Organization of African Unity (OAU) and its successor, the African
Union (AU), have developed and implemented anti-coup norms, they
have not deterred coup-makers. Contributors to this volume analyze
the major fault lines in the body politics of African states that
have created the conditions for coup-making and offer suggestions
for ending the cycle of coups. Using countries such as Burkina
Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Egypt, Mauritania, Sierra Leone, and Sudan as
case studies, each chapter studies the causes, effects, and
evolution of military coups in Africa in order to show that
eliminating military coups will require identifying and addressing
the root causes of the coup in each affected state.
