    ISSUE Policy & Practice Brief # 018 October Knowledge for durable peace 2012 Ghana: A Beacon of Hope in Africa By Anyway Sithole1 Located in West Africa, a generally tumultuous region characterised by political instability of varying magnitude, ranging from coups, political turmoil, violent sectarian conflicts, to simmering political tension even in some seemingly ‘stable’ countries, Ghana stands out as an encouraging success story. Besides being the first nation in sub-Saharan Africa to achieve independence from a colonial power, the country has become the epitome of democracy and good governance in Africa following years of political upheavals. Former presidents of the Republic of Ghana (Fourth Republic) (from left to right), Jerry John Rawlings, John Agyekum Kufuor, John Evans Atta Mills and incumbent President John Dramani Mahama Introduction situations, which many nations are aspiring to achieve.

The quality of research was possible through the support given by my supervisor of the Master’s programme in International Development Studies at Utrecht University, Dr. Gery Nijenhuis, who helped me to approach an issue of international development with the lens of a political scientist. She was always available for questions and provided me with very constructive feedback during all stages of the research and writing process. Her comments continuously motivated and challenged me. Likewise, I am very grateful to my second supervisor at the Department of Politics and Public Administration at the University of Konstanz, Dr. Sonja Grimm, for her inputs to my research proposal and the trust and support she has given me after my time in Ghana. The field research of this study would not have been possible without the enormous support received from Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE, German Development Institute) which served as cooperation partner during the research process. Special thanks goes to Dr. Julia Leininger and Dr. Eva Dick for the provision of first contacts.

  • The Third Peaceful Transfer of Power and Democratic Consolidation in Ghana
    The Third Peaceful Transfer of Power and Democratic Consolidation in Ghana by Emmanuel Graham [email protected] Former Graduate Research and Teaching Assistant Department of Political Science, University of Ghana Ransford Gyampo [email protected] Associate Professor, Political Science Department, University of Ghana. Pamphilious Faanu [email protected] Graduate Assistant, Department of Political Science University of Windsor, Windsor Ontario, Canada Eric Yobo1 [email protected] PhD candidate Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration, School of Public Service and Governance Abstract This paper examines Ghana’s drive towards democratic consolidation and maturity after a third peaceful transfer of political power. It argues that even though some successes have been made, any attempt at describing Ghana’s democracy as consolidated, would mean condoning mediocrity and lowering the bar of democratic consolidation. From the minimalists’ view of democratic consolidation, the paper concedes the successes made after three turnover and peaceful transfer of power. 99 Africology: The Journal of Pan African Studies, vol.10, no.5, July 2017 However, this paper takes the view that Ghana’s electoral processes continue to be saddled with monumental flaws that undermine the integrity of elections and poses a threat of democratic relapse. From the maximalists view, the study points to some successes in terms of the existence of a multi-party system, the implementation of some electoral reforms, the existence of vibrant civil society and media as well as the acceptance of democratic norms behaviourally, attitudinally and constitutionally by the ordinary Ghanaian citizenry and political elites. These achievements notwithstanding, the study identifies several deficits of democratic consolidation including excessive powers of the executive president, ethnic or tribal politics, post-election violence, limited policy influence of civil society, as well as the deliberate effort at tagging civil society with a view to gagging them.
