African State Governance: Subnational Politics and National Power

Editat de A. Carl LeVan, Joseph Olayinka Fashagba, Edward R. McMahon
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iul 2015
Africa is changing and it is easy to overlook how decentralization, democratization, and new forms of illiberalism have transformed federalism, political parties, and local politics. Chapters on Kenya, Nigeria, Ethiopia, and South Africa help fill an important gap in comparative institutional research about state and local politics in Africa.

Recenzii

“This book offers an encompassing analysis of the state of subnational political institutions in Ethiopia, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa. … an ambitious book that shows how subnational legislative politics and local democratic development are weakly linked in Africa. This book will become an important reference for those interested in subnational legislative institutions as the missing link in the processes of political change in Africa.” (Hélder Ferreira do Vale, Democratization, Vol. 24 (4), 2017)
