The Moral Economy of Elections in Africa: Democracy, Voting and Virtue

Buch

Elections have long been seen as a way to foster democracy, development and security in Africa. This study of elections in Ghana, Kenya and Uganda over the last sixty years offers a radical approach to look at the ideas and behavior of participants in elections to demonstrate why elections have not transformed politics as was hoped.
