Here the people rule : political transition and challenges for democratic consolidation in Africa
Bok av John W. Forje
The study is focused on empowering the people in order to cultivate, nurture, and consolidate democratisation and good governance processes in Africa and to better improve on the quality livelihood of the population. This book was inspired following participation at the Conference of Community Democracies (COD) backed by many years of teaching. It penetrates into some fundamental challenges plaguing the continent. One is to root out the persistent and entrenched authoritarian rule and abject poverty of the "bottom billion" of humanity. How can African countries improve on the state-of-the-art of democracy and good governance to build a New Brave and Better Continent? An x-ray of state, civil society-private sector interface is undertaken: highlighting such interface as essential inputs in the developmental process of Africa. It argues at length on the issue of quality and visionary leadership as Africa's greatest deficit.
