Introduction

ALTERNANCE ET DEMOCRATIE EN AFRIQUE

Blog

J’aborderai d’abord la question de la limitation des mandats des gouvernants d’un point de vue philosophique.

Pourquoi philosophique ? Parce que les tenants de l’une ou de l’autre thèse ne manquent pas d’arguments sérieux.

La limitation des mandats des gouvernants est-elle démocratique si l’on considère que la souveraineté est populaire et qu’il appartient au seul peuple de limiter le mandat de ses représentants en élisant d’autres gouvernants pour remplacer ceux en place ?

Zimbabwe Election Analysis

Blog

Zimbabwe went to the polls on 30 July 2018 as constitutionally required, at the end of a five-year term that started in 2013. These elections, however, deviated from normalcy that constitutional scheduling infers, as they followed hard on the heels of the ouster of Zimbabwe’s leader since independence, President Robert Mugabe, at the hands of the military and a ZANU-PF faction in a coup in November 2017, effectively ending Mugabe’s 37-year reign.

THE CYCLE OF AID: IT’S IMPACT ON AFRICA’S GOVERNANCE

Blog

As the continent warms up to the 55th anniversary of Africa day, there is a jovial atmosphere to celebrate the unity and the renewed determination to growth and development on the continent. The day will be commemorated under the theme; “African Union Agenda 2063” an integrated, prosperous and peaceful Africa, driven by its own citizens and representing a dynamic force in the international arena. Well, isn’t this a good theme? It is, but to what extent are we laying a solid foundation for our future generations to achieve this, come 2063.

Governance in Africa

Blog

When talking about governance in Africa, one can say that it has alarmingly declined over the past decade. Characteristics such as bureaucratic obstruction, weak judiciaries, the rule of law and corruption have led to that. This can only be modified through accountability, transparency and competency. There are three main trends that can be identified when addressing governance on the African continent.

Democracy in Africa: The way forward

Blog

"The solutions for Africa are not as generic as what they may seem. It is not a one-size fits all solution, because of all the differences on the different parts of continent. And it is the responsibility of African thought leaders and influencers to make this reality known." Read more here http://rwandatoday.africa/opinion/Democracy-in-Africa--The-way-forward/4...

South Africa: Ready to be democratic again

Blog

The man behind the Umkhonto We Sizwe struggle song umshini wami (bring my machine) Jacob Zuma has finally left office and resigned as President of South Africa his final words to the people not part of his formal speech “we’ll meet somewhere”. It would be an understatement to say that South Africans released a collective sigh of relief. The not so friendly words of youth on the streets of Johannesburg was evidence of that.
