Post-Colonial Kenya
This engaging reassessment of postcolonial Kenya argues that the country’s political turmoil over the last fifteen years is a continuation of repeating patterns of political contestation and conflict across Kenya’s history. When Kibaki stole the 2007 presidential election, leading to a spiral of violence that left over 1,000 people dead in the space of a month, many analysts wondered how this could happen in a country that had previously been con…

Kenya
Despite the optimism in 1992, that competitive multi‐party politics would create effective and meaningful democratic politics in Kenya, there has been a process of political deliberalisation and politicisation of ethnic politics. There is, moreover, little prospect that President Moi will give way to a replacement at the end of his second five‐year term in 2002. There is even less chance that effective political democracy is likely in Kenya in th…
Thabo Mbeki's African renaissance in a globalising world economy
The idea of an African renaissance has once again re‐emerged on the continental agenda, and as in the past, it has captured the imagination of a number of scholars, journalists, and politicians. In South Africa, where the African renaissance has come to be associated with the political ideas of President Thabo Mbeki, it has been broadly interpreted as calling for African political renewal and economic regeneration. Mbeki speaks of the rebirth and…

The left and the question of democratic transition in Kenya
In the aftermath of the 1992 Kenyan multi-party general elections, the first plural elections since political independence in 1963, and the victory of the ruling Kenya African National Union (KANU) on a minority vote, progressive forces, patriots, democrats, and the left in Kenya have demonstrated a concern to critically evaluate the political fecundity of participating in electoral politics. Inside the country, the frustrations, disenchantment a…

Political violence in South Africa
In 'South Africa: Political Violence, Reform and Reconstruction' (ROAPE 53), Morris and Hindson have sought to provide an explanation for the present political violence which goes beyond the simplistic notion of 'black on black'. They pose two fundamental questions. First, why is this violence occurring now when apartheid is in its demise rather than when it was at its peak? Second, why in a society where whites historically have dominated an opp…
