Abstract

"This study analyses democratic transition in the five countries in Anglophone West Africa. Rather than falling into the "normal" trap of a juxtaposition of parallel studies, it uses a methodologically rigorous comparative approach to identify regional trends and specificities. The study shows that democracy is in the region's agenda precisely because it has been denied to the people for too long. There is a determined struggle for human rights because the inhabitant, have been repeatedly stripped of their rights and dignity over time. The study identifies a number of transversal issues that cut across the region, namely: the rise of a militarised security state; a significant increase in public corruption and the primitive accumulation of capital; an intense battle for deepening democracy between civil society and the state; the appropriation of gender politics by the state through the office of "First Ladies"; and the growing disengagement between elections and political choice. The study also discusses both an acceptable regional model - the Ghanaian one, and an unacceptable model - the Liberian example."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

Western democracy is being questioned around the world. At the same time, Western aid groups are quick to say that they are not trying to impose a particular style of democracy on others and that they are open to supporting local, alternative forms of democracy. This book examines what it is about Western democracy that non-Westerners are reacting negatively to and whether the critics often are equating a dislike for certain Western social or economic features with an aversion to Western political systems. It also explores the current state of debate about alternative forms of democratic practice in different regions - Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America - and then puts forward ideas about how Western actors engaged in democracy support can do a better job of incorporating new thinking about alternative democratic forms into their efforts.
