Can democracy deliver for Africa?

ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Africa Debate

Available for over a year

Is a Western model of democracy always the best means of governance in Africa? Is it working? What does it mean to be democratic anyway? Does electoral victory imply a 'winner takes all' approach - giving the victorious party a mandate to rule without accountability - and should it? This is one of the most popular and frequent suggestions from debate listeners.
