Description
Political coalition takes on particular significance in post-colonial Africa, where coalition governments have emerged as responses to challenges faced by the electoral base of liberation parties. This book delves into this complex landscape, thoroughly investigating the pivotal role of coalition governments formed both before and after elections.
