National leadership in post-colonial Africa

Meer over het boek

The essay challenges the prevailing notion of political instability in post-colonial Africa by presenting statistical evidence of political stability across the continent. It highlights the misconception created by military coups and regime changes, illustrating that only a few countries experience significant instability. Through a detailed chronicle of African leaders from 1960 to 1988, the work provides insights into the political landscape and notable events, ultimately revealing a more stable reality than commonly perceived.
