and Institutions: Transitions to Democracy in Africa
In this latest phase of political transitions in Africa, analysts rarely consider the
relationship between religion and politics. This book seeks to address this need. It
argues among other things that for democracy to be consolidated, political leaders must
make the right institutional choices, choices that structure the incentives of their
constituents as well as their own away from antagonistic forms of politics or religious
extremism.
What impact do African contemporary religious organizations and elites have on their
societies in terms of intergroup reciprocity and political bargaining? The primary
objective of this volume is to analyze how such organizations respond to the political
signs and gestures of other groups in a like-minded manner and the nature and effects
of their negotiations with the state and other interests over contested matters.
The authors of this selection of papers hypothesize that Africa s religious organizations
can prove critical in the way their elites make demands on the state and in the way they
help to shape the structure of intergroup relations in constructive or destructive
directions. They consider the roles of both secular and religious elites and institutions
in creating a political climate that enables elites to consolidate democracy.
