Includes bibliographical references (leaves 72-75). The timing of post-conflict elections is a critical element that requires careful consideration to minimize the risk of producing adverse results. Through examining the literature and studying Liberia's 1997 and 2005 elections, this work seeks to identify the best timing practices for post-contlict elections. The theoretical basis, which is inspired by the works of Roland Paris and Terrence Lyons, is that if the circumstances are to permit the long-term goal of democratization, then post-conflict elections should follow a protracted transition period prior to holding the election. 2015-01-02T09:00:24Z 2015-01-02T09:00:24Z 2011 Master Thesis Masters MSocSci http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10942 eng application/pdf Department of Political Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
