Klappentext

Edited by C. Fombad and J. Socher of the Institute for International and Comparative Law in Africa at the University of Pretoria, this collection offers unique insights into the regulation of political parties and its impact on constitutionalism and multiparty democracy in Sub-Saharan Africa. Framed by international, African regional, and European standards, it presents a detailed framework for analysing the constitutionalisation of political parties under modern African constitutions. In-depth case studies from 12 countries-Cameroon, Ethiopia, Kenya, Liberia, Mauritius, Mozambique, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Uganda, and Zimbabwe-highlight diverse experiences. A concluding chapter outlines key findings and future directions.
