Currently, democracy in much of Africa is constrained from delivering on its development potential for three reasons. First, governance capacity is lacking. Second, the quality of electoral democracy is thin. Finally, neopatrimonialism undermines electoral democracy in Africa. A forecast to 2070 quantifies the contribution that different levels of democracy would have on Africa's economic and human development under two scenarios: a democratic regression and a positive wave of democracy. As countries climb the income ladder and become more socially and economically complex, democracy steadily contributes to good governance, development and growth. This only happens if the key components of electoral democracy are realized.

Can Democracy survive in Africa, and if it does, what will be the future of democracy in Africa in a world that is increasingly characterized by a wave of authoritarianism spearheaded by Vladimir Putin's Russia, Xi-Jinping's China, and their minions? That Russia is the citadel of authoritarianism is evidenced by Russia's unprovoked brutal attack on the independent sovereign nation of Ukraine with an ostensible motive of depriving the citizens of Ukraine of their democratic rights and imposing dictatorship on the good people of Ukraine. If democracy, freedom, and liberty is to survive in any part of Africa, then all African nations should unanimously join the free nations to vehemently condemn Vladimir Putin's unprovoked brutal invasion of Ukraine and the carnage it has wrought on the innocent children, women, and men of the nation. Furthermore, freedom-loving African nations must simultaneously send an unambiguous message to Xi-Jinping, the Communist leader of China, to desist from imposing autocracy on the peace-loving democratic society of Taiwan. For many years African nations have been impoverished and oppressed by puppet regimes in Africa imposed from outside the continent, who did and continue to do the bidding of their foreign masters. African leaders know or must know that Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine is to play a similar high-stakes game of installing a puppet regime that Moscow can easily manipulate to the detriment of the vast majority of Ukrainians. Putin is pursuing a similar pernicious policy in Africa to install puppet regimes and extend his autocratic values in Central Africa, Mali, Burkina Faso, Sudan, Eritrea, Equatorial Guinea, Angola, and others. The future of democracy in Africa hinges in part on Putin exploiting the so-called Russia-Africa Summit to circumvent Africa's march to consolidate democracy and freedom on the continent. Africa's freedom lovers should seek to pressure Vladimir Putin to unilaterally abandon his brutal and merciless invasion of an unprovoked sovereign state of Ukraine or else should refuse to be a party to the so-called Russia-Africa Summit.

Democracy Works asks how we can learn to nurture, deepen and consolidate democracy in Africa. By analyzing transitions within and beyond the continent, the authors identify a 'democratic playbook' robust enough to withstand threats to free and fair elections. However, substantive democracy demands more than just regular polls. It is fundamentally about the inner workings of institutions, the rule of law, separation of powers, checks and balances, and leadership in government and civil society. It is also about values and the welfare and well-being of its citizens, and demands local leadership with a plan for the country beyond simply winning the popular vote. This volume addresses the political, economic and extreme demographic challenges that Africa faces. It is intended as a resource for members of civil society and as a guide for all who seek to enjoy the political and development benefits of democracy in the world's poorest continent. Finally, it is for donors and external actors who have to face critical decisions--especially after ill-fated electoral interventions such as Kenya 2017--about the future of observer missions and aid promoting democracy and good governance.

This innovative volume critically examines the intersection between democracy, education and communication in African educational domains. Providing a platform for multidisciplinary research, it advances scholarship in democratic citizenship education in African higher education through methodological and theoretical innovation. The book discusses the extent to which explicit or subtle communication frameworks that underlie policymaking, institutional culture, teaching and learning experiences in African higher education significantly engender democratic mind habits and practices in students as citizens. Chapters in the book examine how communication frameworks in pedagogy ought to navigate power imbalances between students on the one hand and the institution and academics on the other. The book also examines how (dis)empowering higher education policies are and whether they contribute to democratic equality. This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers and post-graduate students in the fields of education, democratic citizenship education, communication, and African studies.

It is two decades since the ‘third wave’ of democratization began to roll across sub-Saharan Africa in the early 1990s. This book provides a very timely investigation into the progress and setbacks over that period, the challenges that remain and the prospects for future democratization in Africa. It commences with an overall assessment of the (lack of) progress made from 1990 to 2010, exploring positive developments with reasons for caution. Based on original research, subsequent contributions examine various themes through country case-studies, inclusive of: the routinisation of elections, accompanied by democratic rollback and the rise of hybrid regimes; the tenacity of presidential powers; the dilemmas of power-sharing; ethnic voting and rise of a violent politics of belonging; the role of ‘donors’ and the ambiguities of ‘democracy promotion’. Overall, the book concludes that steps forward remain greater than reversals and that typically, though not universally, sub-Saharan African countries are more democratic today than in the late 1980s. Nonetheless, the book also calls for more meaningful processes of democratization that aim not only at securing civil and political rights, but also socio-economic rights and the physical security of African citizens. This book was originally published as a special issue of Democratization

A team of scholars examine the radical political changes that have taken place since 1990 in eleven key countries in Africa. Radical changes have taken place in Africa since 1990. What are the realities of these changes? What significant differences have emerged between African countries? What is the future for democracy in the continent? The editors have chosen eleven key countries to provide enlightening comparisons and contrasts to stimulate discussion among students. They have brought together a team of scholars who are actively working in the changing Africa of today.Each chapter is structured around a framing event which defines the experience of democratisation. The editors have provided an overview of the turning points in African politics. They engage with debates on how to study andevaluate democracy in Africa, such as the limits of elections. They identify four major themes with which to examine similarities and divergences as well as to explain change and continuity in what happened in the past. Abdul Raufu Mustapha is University Lecturer in African Politics at Queen Elizabeth House and Kirk-Greene Fellow at St Antony's College, University of Oxford; Lindsay Whitfield is a Research Fellow at the Danish Institute of International Studies, Copenhagen.
