{"product_id":"election-observation-and-democratization-in-africa-9780312223946","title":"Election Observation and Democratization in Africa","description":"This authoritative study of election observation in Africa by foreign and local observers studies its relation with democratization processes. Election observation is seen by donor countries and the international community as a means to enhance democratization, but controversial issues include the \"mandates\" of the observers, the cases of its misappropriation by authoritarian governments, and its masking other interests of donor countries. The book offers theoretical and historical assessments of election observation and evaluates policies and their implementation in specific case studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Na Na\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.82h x 5.73w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312223946\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJon Abbink\u003c\/b\u003e is an anthropologist and a senior researcher and \u003cb\u003eGerti Hesseling\u003c\/b\u003e is Director, both at the African Studies Center at Leiden University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Palgrave MacMillan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":39952787505267,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":134.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_cffb7c97-673f-44e6-8bfc-67ecc39c175e.jpg?v=1648565557","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/election-observation-and-democratization-in-africa-9780312223946","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
