What explains sub-national variation in maternal mortality rates within developing countries? A political economy explanation
From rural rebellions to urban riots: Political competition and changing patterns of violent political revolt in Uganda
Violent political revolt has been common in independent Uganda. For a long time, such revolts were exclusively expressed as rural-based rebel groups fighting the government. Since the mid-2000s, however, this seems to have come to an end. Instead, urban riots, very rare in the past, have become much more common. This article analyses these changing patterns of types and location of violent political revolt in Uganda under the National Resistance …
The master of institutional multiplicity? The shifting politics of regime survival, state-building and democratisation in Museveni's Uganda
Current understandings of regime survival in Uganda tend to over-emphasise the role of 'semi-authoritarian' and 'neopatrimonial' politics and neglect the extent to which the regime deploys alternative strategies of political rule that also involve 'soft' forms of power and formal elements of state-building. The regime's extensive deployment of 'soft' power includes President Museveni's responsiveness to popular concerns and fears and the careful …
The epidemiology of ‘bewitchment’ as a lay-reported cause of death in rural South Africa
BACKGROUND: Cases of premature death in Africa may be attributed to witchcraft. In such settings, medical registration of causes of death is rare. To fill this gap, verbal autopsy (VA) methods record signs and symptoms of the deceased before death as well as lay opinion regarding the cause of death; this information is then interpreted to derive a medical cause of death. In the Agincourt Health and Demographic Surveillance Site, South Africa, aro…
Developmental patrimonialism? The case of Rwanda
Academic debate on Rwanda has significant thematic gaps, and does not usually make use of a theoretically informed comparative framework. This article addresses one thematic gap – the distinctive approach of the RPF-led regime to political involvement in the private sector of the economy. It does so using the framework of a cross-national study which aims to distinguish between more and less developmental forms of neo-patrimonial politics. The ar…
Governing Chronic Poverty under Inclusive Liberalism: The Case of the Northern Uganda Social Action Fund
The paradigm of 'inclusive neoliberalism' that currently characterises international development places a particular emphasis on community-based responses to the often structural problems of poverty and exclusion. Such approaches have become increasingly controversial: celebrated by optimists as the most empowering way forward for marginal citizens on the one hand, and derided as an abrogation of responsibility by development trustees by sceptics…
Witchcraft, Social Cohesion and Participation in a South African Village
The past thirty years have seen development agencies, non-governmental organizations and their funders embrace 'participatory' development strategies. These strategies require the poor to take part in decision-making about, and the implementation of, development projects and programmes. Underlying enthusiasm for participation is the recognition that centralized, top-down systems and methods have not delivered development, and the assumption that …
