Full Description
"African Democratic Montage: Case Studies on Ghana, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Kenya" explores the challenges African states face in achieving democratic consolidation. The book highlights that these countries have constitutional tools, human rights frameworks, the African Union's code of leadership, and democratic election principles to foster good governance. However, their varied application of these tools leads to different democratic outcomes. Coincidentally, the book addresses the resurgence of military coups in some African countries, exposing democracy's fragility and calling for solutions to prevent future coups. It provides a brief history of each country's pre-colonial, colonial, and post-colonial periods, showcasing their unique democratic journeys. The volume notes that the struggle for democratic consolidation is hindered by issues in electoral contests and human rights violations. Nevertheless, it suggests that enforcing constitutional human rights and adhering to African Union declarations can promote good governance, democratic consolidation, peaceful coexistence, and national cohesion.
