Economic Crisis, Civil Society, and Democratization: The Case of Zambia.
By Julius O. Ihonvbere. The transition from an authoritarian to an egalitarian form of government is a major paradigm shift for any society. When forces of opposition remain major players, however, the transition is guaranteed to be tumultuous. Thus, any democratizing African nation in which democracy-in any form-is still alive at the end of the its first term is well worth studying, even if only for the light it may shed on the challenges of democratization in post-Cold War Africa. In this, "the first major book on post-UNIP Zambia," the author chronicles the efforts of the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) in Zambia since 1991 to consolidate democracy and rebuild a civil society-despite fierce competition by the ousted United National Independence Party (UNIP) and ongoing efforts at intervention by Western financial donors/lenders such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.
