Democratic transitions in the early 1990s introduced a sea change
in Sub-Saharan African politics. Between 1990 and 2015, several
hundred competitive legislative and presidential elections were
held in all but a handful of the region's countries. This book is
the first comprehensive comparative analysis of the key issues,
actors, and trends in these elections over the last quarter
century. The book asks: what motivates African citizens to vote?
What issues do candidates campaign on? How has the turn to regular
elections promoted greater democracy? Has regular electoral
competition made a difference for the welfare of citizens? The
authors argue that regular elections have both caused significant
changes in African politics and been influenced in turn by a
rapidly changing continent - even if few of the political systems
that now convene elections can be considered democratic, and even
if many old features of African politics persist.
