Populist Strategies in African Democracies

Book Description
Drawing on insights from Latin America, this paper examines the factors that contributed to the use of populist strategies by political parties during recent presidential elections in Kenya, South Africa, and Zambia. Specifically, the paper argues that the nature of party competition in Africa, combined with rapid urbanization and informalization of the labour force, provided a niche for populist leaders to espouse a message relevant to the region's growing urban poor. Simultaneously, such leaders employed ethno-linguistic appeals to mobilize a segment of rural voters who could form a minimum winning coalition in concert with the urban poor and thereby deliver sizeable electoral victories. While such strategies are similar to those used by Latin American populists, the paper highlights key contrasts as well. By combining cross-regional and sub-national perspectives, this paper therefore aims to contribute to a better understanding of how demographic and socioeconomic changes in Africa intersect with voting behaviour and political party development. -- Africa ; democratization ; political parties ; populism ; urbanization ; voting behaviour

Populist Military Regimes in West Africa
Author: Henry Bienen
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Africa, West
Languages : en
Pages : 21
Book Description
Populism is not new in Africa. Attacks on established institutions and corruption, expressions of puritanism and the need for moral redemption have occurred prior to the populist coups carried out in Ghana in 1979 and 1981, Liberia in 1980 and Upper Volta in 1983. The emphasis on individual leadership and on direct ties between leader and people have occurred also. Nor are coups led by junior officers or noncommissioned officers new. However, the recent West African coups were ushered in with violence, were frontal assaults on established regimes and institutions, and do have features which are unusual in Africa.
