This book was released on 2003 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary: Sierra Leone's 2002 presidential and parliamentary elections were conducted only four months after a formal declaration of peace. The voter registration process was hampered by high illiteracy, limited media and voter education outreach, inadequate materials and staff at some sites, and changes in the voter registration system. The candidate nomination deadline was April 2 but was extended to allow the political party RUFP to replace rebel leader Foday Sankoh as their presidential nominee. A Carter Center delegation arrived in Sierra Leone, co-led by former Benin President Nicephore Soglo and Carter Center Associate Executive Director Ambassador Gordon Streeb. 83% of those registered cast ballots on May 10 or 14. The electoral environment was remarkable for its lack of violence, for the dignity and patience of Sierra Leonean voters, and for the competence and enthusiasm of polling station officials. Incumbent President Ahmad Tejan Kabbah won a decisive 70.1 percent of the votes, and his SLPP also won a majority in the 124-member Parliament. The report continues with recommendations for improving future elections and fortifying democratic development.

Book Synopsis Elections and Conflict Management in Africa by : Timothy D. Sisk
Download or read book Elections and Conflict Management in Africa written by Timothy D. Sisk and published by US Institute of Peace Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elections have emerged as one of the most important, and most contentious, features of political life on the African continent. In the first half of this decade, there were more than 20 national elections, serving largely as capstones of peace processes or transitions to democracies. The outcomes of these and more recent elections have been remarkably varied, and the relationship between elections and conflict management is widely debated throughout Africa and among international observers. Elections can either help reduce tensions by reconstituting legitimate government, or they can exacerbate them by further polarizing highly conflictual societies. This timely volume examines the relationship between elections, especially electoral systems, and conflict management in Africa, while also serving as an important reference for other regions. The book brings together for the first time the latest thinking on the many different roles elections can play in democratization and conflict management.
Book Synopsis Research Handbook on Post-Conflict State Building by : Paul R. Williams
Download or read book Research Handbook on Post-Conflict State Building written by Paul R. Williams and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2020-08-28 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a conflict ends and the parties begin working towards a durable peace, practitioners and peacebuilders are faced with the thrilling possibilities and challenges of building new or reformed political, security, judicial, social, and economic structures. This Handbook analyzes these elements of post-conflict state building through the lens of international law, which provides a framework through which the authors contextualize and examine the many facets of state building in relation to the legal norms, processes, and procedures that guide such efforts across the globe. The volume aims to provide not only an introduction to and explanation of prominent topics in state building, but also a perceptive analysis that augments ongoing conversations among researchers, lawyers, and advocates engaged in the field.
Book Synopsis When Peacekeeping Missions Collide by : Paul F. Diehl
Download or read book When Peacekeeping Missions Collide written by Paul F. Diehl and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-13 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Most analyses of peacekeeping focus on attempts to limit violent conflict. Yet contemporary peace operations are asked to do much more, including unconventional roles of monitoring elections, facilitating transitions to the rule of law, distributing humanitarian aid, and resolving conflicts in civil societies undergoing transformation. This path-breaking work takes the lid off peace operations to explore missions (e.g., Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration) that go beyond traditional peacekeeping and the ways mission outcomes influence one another. This work begins by documenting patterns of peacekeeping missions in 70 UN operations, noting the dramatic increase in number and diversity since the end of the Cold War and the shift to conflicts with a substantial internal conflict component. The core of the book examines eight expectations about how different missions interact with one another. The expectations are guided by theoretical logics associated with sequencing, compatibility, and multitasking. These are examined in five detailed case studies of UN operations: United Nations Protection Force or UNPROFOR (Bosnia); United Nations Operation in the Congo or ONUC (Congo); United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor or UNTAET (East Timor); United Nations Organization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or MONUC (Congo); and the United Nations Mission in Sierra Leone or UNAMSIL (Sierra Leone). The final chapter reviews the findings in terms of their implications for the expectations. It also provides a policy-relevant framework for organizing the various parts and stages of a peace operation, offering a future research agenda on multiple mission peacekeeping"--

Book Synopsis Liberal Peace and Post-Conflict Peacebuilding in Africa by : Patrick Tom
Download or read book Liberal Peace and Post-Conflict Peacebuilding in Africa written by Patrick Tom and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book makes theoretical and empirical contributions to recent debates on hybrid forms of peace and ‘post-liberal’ peace. In applying concepts of power, hybridity and resistance, and providing different kinds of hybridity and resistance to explore post-conflict peacebuilding in Sierra Leone, the author makes an original contribution to existing literature by providing various ways in which power can be exercised not just between locals and internationals, but also among locals themselves and the nature of peace that is produced. This volume provides various ways in which hybridity and resistance can be manifested. A more rigorous development of these concepts not only offers a better understanding of the nature of these concepts, but also helps us to distinguish forms of hybridity and resistance that are emancipatory or transformatory from those that result in people accommodating themselves to their situation. This book is an invaluable resource for scholars and students of peacebuilding, peace and conflict studies, International Relations and African Studies, and practitioners of peacebuilding and post-conflict reconstruction.
Book Synopsis Civil War and Democracy in West Africa by : David Harris
Download or read book Civil War and Democracy in West Africa written by David Harris and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-13 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of explosive civil wars in Africa during the 1990s and 2000s, the establishment of multi-party elections has often been heralded by the West as signaling the culmination of the conflict and the beginning of a period of democratic rule. However, the outcomes of these elections are very rarely uniform, with just as many countries returning to conflict as not. Here, David Harris uses the examples of Sierra Leone and Liberia to examine the nexus of international and domestic politics in these post-conflict elections. In doing so, he comes to the conclusion that it is political, rather than legal, solutions that are more likely to enhance any positive political change that has emerged from the violence. This book is thus of significance to Western and African policy makers, and also to students and scholars who wish to engage with the critical issues of conflict resolution and reconciliation both in Sierra Leone and Liberia in particular and in the wider region in general.

Book Synopsis Strengthening Electoral Integrity by : Pippa Norris
Download or read book Strengthening Electoral Integrity written by Pippa Norris and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today a general mood of pessimism surrounds Western efforts to strengthen elections and democracy abroad. If elections are often deeply flawed or even broken in many countries around the world, can anything be done to fix them? To counter the prevailing ethos, Pippa Norris presents new evidence for why programs of international electoral assistance work. She evaluates the effectiveness of several practical remedies, including efforts designed to reform electoral laws, strengthen women's representation, build effective electoral management bodies, promote balanced campaign communications, regulate political money, and improve voter registration. Pippa Norris argues that it would be a tragedy to undermine progress by withdrawing from international engagement. Instead, the international community needs to learn the lessons of what works best to strengthen electoral integrity, to focus activities and resources upon the most effective programs, and to innovate after a quarter century of efforts to strengthen electoral integrity.
