Bøger af Michael (Michigan State University) Bratton

This book is a fascinating exploration of public opinion in sub-Saharan Africa. Based on the Afrobarometer, a survey research project, it reveals what ordinary Africans think about democracy and market reforms, subjects on which almost nothing is otherwise known.

This study constitutes the first comprehensive analysis of democratic transitions in Sub-Saharan Africa. Michael Bratton and Nicholas van de Walle explain why a wave of political liberalization occurred between 1989 and 1994 and discuss the long-term prospects for democracy in Africa.
