Today, we have part one of our African Studies Association panel on African democracy, focusing on democratic backsliding and sites and actors that have worked for democratic endurance, strengthening, and democratic governance. You’ll hear Rachel’s introduction on democratic backsliding on the continent and a case study from Kim on Malawi, written with Boniface Dulani.
Next week, tune in for a presentation from Alexandra Blackman, assistant professor of government at Cornell University, for a case study on Tunisia.
