Prepared under the supervision of Prof. Nico Steytler of the Faculty of Law, University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa The paper addresses the question whether the African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance would effectively address the identified electoral problems at a substantive as well as implementation levels. Accordingly, the aim of the study is two fold. This paper analyses the key electoral problems in Africa by analysing trends in recent elections that jeopardise democratic consolidation. Secondly, it evaluates the Charter in addressing the identified problems at normative as well as practical levels. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2008-05-19T07:34:14Z 2008-05-19T07:34:14Z 07-Oct 2007 Mini Dissertation Alemu, T 2007, The African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance: a normative framework for analysing electoral democracy in Africa, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/5333> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/5333 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights, Law Faculty, University of Pretoria 274527 bytes application/pdf application/pdf University of Pretoria
