"L'ouvrage d'Issaka K. Souaré est un véritable tour de force intellectuel sur un sujet important, mais paradoxalement peu étudié. En adoptant une perspective théorique alliant jeux d'acteurs et cadres institutionnels, il retrace l'histoire des partis politiques africains depuis la période coloniale tout en offrant une analyse documentée et contextualisée des dynamiques électorales récentes, avec un accent particulier sur les partis d'opposition." Mamoudou Gazibo Professeur de science politique, Université de Montréal. Issaka K. Souaré est spécialiste des questions de gouvernance, de paix et de sécurité en Afrique. Il a notamment travaillé comme Conseiller spécial du Haut représentant de l'Union africaine pour le Mali et le Sahel. Il a écrit, entre autres, Guerres civiles et coups d'État en Afrique de l'Ouest (Paris, 2007) et Africa in the United Nations System, 1945-2005 (Londres, 2006).

The political parties in Congress are as polarized as they have been in 100 years. This book examines more than 30 years of congressional history to understand how it is that the Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill have become so divided. It finds that two steps were critical for this development. First, the respective parties' constituencies became more politically and ideologically aligned. Second, members ceded more power to their party leaders, who implemented procedures more frequently and with greater consequence. In fact, almost the entire rise in party polarization can be accounted for in the increasing frequency of and polarization on procedures used during the legislative process.
