The Politics of Economic Decline in Sierra Leone
But this observation is also a reminder that under colonial rule, Sierra Leone had received considerable notoriety for several reasons: an important naval base, commercial centre, and seaport; a hot-bed of political agitation and perennial challenge to British authority; and a centre of education - the so-called 'Athens of West Africa'.1In more recent times, however, Sierra Leone jas not caught the attention of international commentators and the …

Regionalism in Africa: A Short Study of the Record
With the end of the 1980s as well as the third decade of the post-colonial era in view, the contours of the African predicament are not hard to decipher. The facts and figures on high rates of population growth, urbanization, unand underemployment, inflation, debt servicing and interest payments, and low levels of food supply, productivity, research and development, and foreign exchange are, by now, quite familiar. Environmental vicissitudes dese…
Labour and Parastatal Politics in Sierra Leone: A Study of African Working-Class Ambivalence

Primarily an empirical study of the Dock Workers' Union at the Sierra Leone port organization, analysis is made of the union's attitudes, relation with management, political elites, and views of other trade unions.

The Lagos Plan of Action and Africa's Future
The Development of Modern Trade Unionism in Sierra Leone, Part I
With the SLPP as the party of government, Sierra Leone became an independent state within the British Commonwealth on 27 April 1961. In the period between the constitutional talks in London and the first held on the basis of universal suffrage in Sierra Leone (between August 1960 and May 1962), new political realignments became apparent. These resulted in divisions over questions of political strategy within the labor movement. The realignments b…

The political economy of an African public enterprise: A longitudinal case study of the administrative and economic operations of the Sierra Leone Port Organization
In most of the post‐colonial states of sub‐Saharan Africa, both the size of the state bureaucracy has grown and its functions proliferated. Whatever the economic rationale of public sector organizations, they do not exist and operate in a social and political vacuum. This paper argues that they are typically an integral part of a patron clientelist political and economic system on which the foundations of government sometimes depend. The conseque…
