Governance in Africa: Challenges for the next 50 years&ast

Peter Anyang'Nyong'o

Development, 2013, vol. 56, issue 3, 308-314

Abstract: This essay traces the evolving visions of African governance, from the dawn of independence to present times, and maps out the interlocking arenas where struggles for democracy, human rights, and development are taking place. These range from global struggles over neo-liberalism, to continent-wide engagement over Pan-Africanism and good governance, to national movements to protect electoral democracy and rule of law, to sub-national activism around local democracy, subsidiarity, and people’s rights.
