Africa’s Weak Democracy

Leon Louw at African Liberty, outlines fundamental weaknesses in African democracies:

There are 25 or so “checks and balances” in most Western democracy constitutions, almost none of which have been incorporated in Third World “democracies”, including Kenya. One of the most important is the rule of law, which has, sadly, become a largely contentless cliché.

He distils the most important components:
- Laws must be objective not discretionary
-There must be a Separation of Powers
