  • Chapter 10 Ghana at 60.Fm
    A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF MULTI-PARTY POLITICS IN GHANA AND MAURITIUS HAPTER C 10 Darsheenee Singh Ramnauth & Roopanand Mahadew Abstract Ghana and Mauritius have been examples of democracies in Sub-Saharan Africa. From a historical perspective, even though Mauritius achieved independence 10 years after Ghana achieved its independence, both countries share a lot of similarities on the political front. This chapter focuses on the evolution of multi-party politics from the advent of independence in these two countries and highlights how it has contributed in shaping and strengthening the concept of democracy. It demonstrates how multi- party politics has influenced civil and political rights from an international, regional and national perspective in terms of their implementation and enjoyment by their citizens. Furthermore it also analyses the power structure in the two countries, in terms of the executive, legislature and the judiciary and establishes how the evolution of multi-party politics has changed the democratisation of the power structure as well. It argues that interdependence of the state institutions has contributed to multi party politics in both countries. It further observes that respect for human rights and rule of law has also consolidated the democratic fabric in both countries. Furthermore, delving in the depth of the political and legal system, the chapter questions the holding of elections as an instrument of strengthening democracy and highlights the first post the post and the best loser system in Ghana and Mauritius respectively as a means of handling the cultural diversity in the two nations. Best practices from both countries are also highlighted to serve as examples that can be followed by other Sub-Saharan Africa countries.

    IMD Partner in Democracy A NNUAL R EPORT 2005 The IMD – an institute of political parties for political parties The Institute for Multiparty Democracy (IMD) is an institute of political parties for political parties. Its mandate is to encourage the process of democratisation in young democracies by providing support to political parties as the core pillars of multi- party democracy. IMD works in a strictly non-partisan and inclusive manner. Through this approach, the Institute endeavours to contribute to properly functioning, sustainable pluralistic political party systems. It also supports the activities of civil society groups which play a healthy role in multi-party democracies, even though they are not part of any formal party structure. IMD was set up by seven Dutch political parties in 2000 in response to requests for support from around the world. The IMD’s founding members are the Dutch Labour Party (PvdA), Liberal Party (VVD), Christian Democratic Party (CDA), Democratic Party (D66), Green Party (GroenLinks), Christian Union (ChristenUnie) and Reformed Party (SGP).

  • Small States & Territories, Vol. 3, No. 1, 2020, Pp. 83-98 Women's Political
    Small States & Territories, Vol. 3, No. 1, 2020, pp. 83-98 Women’s political representation in Small Island Developing States: A comparative analysis of Mauritius and Seychelles Ramola Ramtohul Department of Social Studies University of Mauritius [email protected] Abstract: A notable feature of the island studies literature is the gap at the level of research and data on gender issues. This paper look at the gender dimensions of political representation in two Small Island Developing States (SIDS) in the Indian Ocean: Mauritius and Seychelles. The paper discusses the gendered aspects of scale, boundedness, isolation and fragmentation that are characteristic of island states in the contexts of Mauritius and Seychelles. Mauritius and Seychelles both inherited British colonial structures and became independent in 1968 and 1976. Smallness is a salient feature of both islands, but women’s political trajectories and success differ substantially. Drawing from published sources, this paper attempts to explain the different trends in gendered political presence in Mauritius and Seychelles. The paper also discusses the implications for women’s political empowerment in SIDS. Keywords: Mauritius, Seychelles, scale, women’s political representation, patriarchy © 2020 – Islands and Small States Institute, University of Malta, Malta Introduction The field of island studies is a relatively recent area of scholarship that gained impetus with the increased global concern about climate change and vulnerabilities of small island states. Following decolonisation of the developing world, many islands became sovereign states, left to fend for themselves in order to ensure economic and social survival. Island countries constitute most of all small sovereign states (Srebrnik, 2004, p.

    Forgotten by families Anushka Virahsawmy CHAPTER 2 Gender and governance Articles 12-13 Namibia scored a goal for gender equality in its November 2014 elecions. KEY POINTS Photo courtesy of All Africa.com • The year 2015 marks the deadline for the SADC region to have reached gender parity in all areas of decision-making. No country has reached the 50% target of women's representation in parliament, cabinet or local government. • Over the past six years, women's overall representation in parliament has gone up by only two percentage points from 25% in 2009 to 27% in 2015. Seychelles (4th) and South Africa (7th) are the only two SADC countries in the top ten global ranking of women parliamen- tarians. However as a region SADC is five percentage points ahead of the global average of women in parliament (22%). • Women's representation in local government has increased by a mere one percentage point from 23% in 2009 to 24% in 2015. • Women's representation in cabinet has virtually remained stagnant at 22% since 2009. • Women in eight SADC countries have, for the first time, occupied top positions during the monitoring period. In June, Mauritius became the second SADC country after Malawi to have a woman President. SADC currently has a woman vice president in Zambia, as well as a woman prime minister and deputy prime minister in Namibia. • Between July 2015 and the end of 2016, seven more SADC countries - DRC (local); Lesotho (local), Madagascar (local), Tanzania (Tripartite) and Zambia (National), South Africa and Namibia (local) are due to hold elections.

  • Bipolarisation, a Likely Trend in Mauritian Politics
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Development International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Development Online ISSN: 2349-4182, Print ISSN: 2349-5979 Impact Factor: RJIF 5.72 Received: 03-03-2018; Accepted: 11-04-2018 www.allsubjectjournal.com Volume 5; Issue 4; April 2018; Page No. 155-160 Bipolarisation, a likely trend in Mauritian politics Nirmal Kumar Betchoo Department of Business and Management, Université des Mascareignes, Republic of Mauritius, Mauritius Abstract When civil society is called to reflect upon change in the political system, it implicitly calls for political renewal in the form of new government, new leaders devoid of corruption and strategies, good governance, the spirit of entrepreneurship and forward thinking as well as an innovative approach to managing government. Despite all such expectations, new leaders rarely emerge in certain political contexts namely Mauritius because of a long-rooted tradition of bipolarity through democracy. There might still be a wave for change in the local political environment with new leadership stepping forward in the Mauritian society. This research article states that bipartisanship is embedded in Mauritian politics and is likely to be the trend in the next five years. It highlights the existence of bipolar politics in Mauritius, analyses an exception to it but predicts a bipartisanship trend. It concludes by affirming the strength of the concept while being critical of the gloom of new political leadership in Mauritius. Keywords: bipolarity, democracy, leadership, trend, Mauritius 1. Introduction Arab Emirates. The concept ‘bipolarity’ can be defined as a system of world 2. Mauritius and Democracy order in which the majority of global economic, military and Mauritius, an island-nation in the Indian Ocean, located some cultural influence is held between two states.
