Democratization in the Third World
Gender, development, and environmental governance
If the “development” of societies is seen to be about the unfolding of existing possibilities to meet common needs in environmentally sustainable ways, then the issues of defining and agreeing abou
They Have Left Us in a Hole
A conceptual distinction is made between minimal and substantial democracy, where the latter concept aims to integrate constitutional minimalistically defined democracy with a notion of political equality in actual practice. In this perspective, 'substantial democratisation' and 'development' are linked to each other. The argument is illustrated through a diachronic case study of a village in Northern Guinea-Bissau. Minimal democratisation throug…
Reading Cabral on democracy
This paper reviews the impact of Cabral's ideas regarding democracy. While assessing the context within which the Guinea Bissau liberation struggle was undertaken, the author reviews the possible alternative political systems Cabral would be confronted with, had he lived long enough to see the liberation of Guinea Bissau and Cape Verde

Guinea‐bissau
At 5 o'clock, in the early morning of Sunday, 7 June, shooting was heard from the military installations at Santa Luzia in north-eastern Bissau, capital of the West African republic of Guinea-Bissau, govemed under multiparty constitutional democracy since elections held in 1994. Fighting spread quickly to the military base at Bra, near the intemational airport, in the north-westem parts of the city. In a radio broadcast the same day, president Jo…
Dimensions of Development with Emphasis on Africa
To seek happiness
This article examines what democracy means to a people who have no direct word for it in their own language. It sets one village's experience of Guine‐Bissau's first multi‐party elections in the historic context of the struggle for independence, the failures of the one‐party state, the difficulties caused by structural adjustment. It sets this experience against theories of democracy as an ideal or as sets of formal arrangements and argues that w…

stimulus for creating new ideas. So also is his methodology, described in all the pieces which follow. It was a methodology which, for example, sought to understand ethnic differences through careful studies of how people live, and rather than hiding differences, sought ways for people to unite. It also made exhortations to 'tell no lies, claim no easy victories' which might appear banal but, if applied, gain real credibility for any political mo…
The effects of structural adjustment in Kandjadja, Guinea‐Bissau
A major cost of structural adjustment is the undermining of private extended family and official socio‐economic security networks and a consequent diminishment of confidence in the state's ability to perform even minimal welfare functions, which undermines the legitimacy of the state. Politically disillusioned with ‘national’ solutions, people increasingly may seek ‘traditional’ solutions to their daily welfare problems defined in cultural/ethnic…

Kandjadja, Guinea‐Bissau 1976–1986 observations on the political economy of an African village
Recent work in both Mozambique (Egero 1987) and Guinea‐Bissau (Galll & Jones 1987) argues that in both, the transition to socialism has been halted or undermined by three basic failures: to create a peasant‐based strategy of rural development; to sustain popular participation (people's power); and to ensure that the state represented the interests of workers and peasants. The leadership have failed to recreate after independence the political all…
Problèmes de pouvoir populaire et de développement
Development and Class Struggle in Guinea-Bissau
In September 1956, Amilcar Cabral and a small group of comrades founded the Partido Africano da Independencia da Guine e Cabo Verde (PAIGC) in Bissau, then the capital of a small and backward West African colony known as Portuguese Guinea. In September 1973, the first elected National Assembly of the People met in Boe, in the eastern part of the country, to proclaim the de jure existence of the sovereign state of Guinea-Bissau. Through political …
Guinea-Bissau
In this book concrete facts are presented about the struggle for national liberation and development in the small West African peasant country, an independent republic since September, 1973. The focus of the book is upon the new society under construction in the liberated areas of the country, while the armed struggle against the Portuguese colonial army was still going on. The book takes account of the dramatic changes in Portugal and her former…
Political Mobilisation for Development in Guinea-Bissau
In a recent theoretical essay I tried to demonstrate, among other things, the crucial importance of politics in any effort to overcome the underdevelopment of our own historical period; and I hope I have also shown how different kinds of political systems may be assumed to interact with various kinds of development strategies.1 The most hopeful combination is where a dynamic political interaction is established between the developmental needs and…

Sincethe original draft of this article was completed during the early summer of 1969, the attempt at radical co-operative agricultural reform initiated in Tunisia in January 1969 has been abandoned, and its main promoter, the former Minister of Planning and of the National Economy, Ahmed Ben Salah, has been deprived of all political influence, excluded from the party, and finally arrested in March 1970
