Cote D `Ivoire Cote d `Ivoire y Review 2003 0 http://www.countrywatch.com Acknowledgements There are several people without whom the creation of this year's edition of the CountryWatch Country Reviews could not have been Contributors accomplished. Robert Kelly, the Founder and Chairman of CountryWatch envisioned the original idea of CountryWatch Robert C. Kelly Country Reviews as a concise and meaningful source of Founder and Chairman country-specific information, containing fundamental demographic, socio-cultural, political, economic, investment and environmental Denise Youngblood-Coleman Ph. D. information, in a consistent format. Special thanks must be Executive Vice President and conveyed to Robert Baldwin, the Co-Chairman of CountryWatch, Editor-in-Chief who championed the idea of intensified contributions by regional specialists in building meaningful content. Today, the CountryWatch Mary Ann Azevedo M. A. Country Reviews simply would not exist without the research and Managing Editor writing done by the current Editorial Department at CountryWatch. The team is responsible for hundreds of thousands of pages of Julie Zhu current information on the recognized countries of the world. This Economics Editor Herculean task could not have been accomplished without the unique talents of Mary Ann Azevedo, Julie Zhu, Ryan Jennings, Ryan Jennings Cristy Kelly, Ryan Holliway, Anne Marie Surnson and Michelle Economics Analysts Hughes within the Editorial Department. These individuals faithfully expend long hours of work, incredible diligence and the highest Ryan Holliway degree of dedication in their efforts. For these reasons, they have my Researcher and Writer utmost gratitude and unflagging respect.A word of thanks must also be extended to colleagues in the academic world with whom Cristy Kelly specialized global knowledge has been shared and whose Research Analyst contributions to CountryWatch are enduring. Accordingly, I am indebted to Stanton Doyle, the former co-Editor of CountryWatch, Anne Marie Surnson Richard Marcus, the Director of the International Studies Program at News Wire Manager California State University and former Africa Editor for CountryWatch, Brigette Allen former Latin America Editor for Michelle Hughes CountryWatch, and Christina Surowiec, former Regional Editor for News Wire Editor CountryWatch.Finally, without the extraordinary assistance of our Information Technology department, the CountryWatch Country Cesar Rosa Reviews could not be published. Cesar Rosa works responsively Chief Information Officer with the Editorial Department to ensure the annual production of the CountryWatch Country Reviews. John Torres ensures our technical John Torres capacity functions efficiently. As such, I am truly indebted to them Technical Network Manager for their efforts. Finally, my utmost gratitude is extended to my mentors in the disciplines of Anthropology, International Development and International Relations, who taught me about the tensions between states and nations in the contemporary world, the value of ethnographic research as the best lens to understanding the complexity of the human condition, and that policy is meaningless unless it positively impacts the quotidian lives of people across the planet.

  • The Politics of Executive Constraints Across Sub-Saharan Africa
    REINING IN THE BIG MEN: THE POLITICS OF EXECUTIVE CONSTRAINTS ACROSS SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Kristin Alisa McKie January 2012 © 2012 Kristin Alisa McKie REINING IN THE BIG MEN: THE POLITICS OF EXECUTIVE CONSTRAINTS ACROSS SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA Kristin Alisa McKie, Ph. D. Cornell University 2012 Under what conditions does the rule of law, especially with regards to the constraining of executive power, become institutionalized in newly liberalized countries where presidential authority has historically been greatly unchecked? This dissertation explores this puzzle by exploring two inter-related questions: first, why would a longtime ruling party acquiesce to institutional constraints being placed on the executive in the first place, and second, once implemented, why are these institutional rules able to successfully constrain leaders in some sub-Saharan states but not others? To address both questions, my dissertation investigates variation in the adoption of, and later adherence to, executive term limit laws and other constraints on presidential power across Africa. Based on both a medium-n quantitative analysis and extensive qualitative interview and archival data collected during eleven months of fieldwork in Uganda and Zambia, I construct an explanation that challenges previous assumptions about the development of constitutionalism in liberalizing countries. I argue that, due to the rarity of divided governments across sub-Saharan Africa, members of parliament from the ruling party ultimately choose whether or not to restrain executive tenure based on their perceptions of their party’s (and, therefore, their own) electoral competitiveness.

  • Côte D'ivoire Prime Minister's Passing Shakes up Electoral Outlook
    ASG Analysis: Côte d’Ivoire Prime Minister’s Passing Shakes Up Electoral Outlook July 10, 2020 Key Takeaways • Already expected to be contentious, Côte d’Ivoire’s October 2020 presidential elections became more uncertain following Wednesday’s unexpected death of Prime Minister Amadou Gon Coulibaly. • Ahead of the polls, analysts are concerned that an increasingly fragmented political field could lead to electoral violence reminiscent of Côte d’Ivoire’s previous unstable electoral periods and hamper economic recovery from the Covid-19 crisis. • Political jockeying has begun within the ruling party to replace Gon Coulibaly as the standard bearer and face off against likely opposition front runner Henri Konan Bédié. Ruling party stalwarts are calling on President Ouattara to run for a third term, and Minister of Defense Hamed Bakayoko as well as Vice President Daniel Kablan Duncan are also considered strong contenders for the candidacy. Prime Minister Amadou Gon Coulibaly’s sudden death upends Ivorian election Despite Covid-19, Cote d’Ivoire has remained steadfast in moving forward with plans to hold presidential elections in October 2020. Early in the electoral process, speculation over whether President Alassane Ouattara would attempt to stand for an unconstitutional third term was rampant. Last December, Ouattara declared his intention to participate in the elections should former Ivorian presidents and opposition members Laurent Gbagbo and Henri Bédié opt to run. International and local political pundits let out a collective sigh in relief this March when Ouattara announced that he would not seek reelection, helping to avoid a major constitutional crisis. But the sudden death of Prime Minister Amadou Gon Coulibaly on July 8 has reignited uncertainty over Ouattara’s candidacy and the election in general.

  • Cote D'lvoire
    Cote d’lvoire SIGNIFICANT ADVANCEMENT In 2014, Côte d’Ivoire made a significant advancement in efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labor. The Government conducted a labor survey which included a subsurvey to determine the activities of working children; issued a decree to implement the Trafficking and Worst Forms of Child Labor Law that was adopted in 2010; and adopted a National Policy Document on Child Protection. The Government also established a National Committee for the Fight Against Trafficking in Persons; increased the budget of the Directorate for the Fight Against Child Labor by $800,000; continued to support social programs that address child labor in support of activities under the National Action Plan against Trafficking, Exploitation, and Child Labor (NAP); and completed the pilot phase of the child labor monitoring system known as SOSTECI. However, children in Côte d’Ivoire are engaged in the worst forms of child labor in domestic work and agriculture, particularly on cocoa farms, sometimes under conditions of forced labor. Gaps remain in enforcement efforts and in children’s access to education. I. PREVALENCE AND SECTORAL DISTRIBUTION OF CHILD LABOR Children in Côte d’Ivoire are engaged in the worst forms of child labor in domestic work and agriculture, particularly on cocoa farms, sometimes under conditions of forced labor.(1-9) According to a report by Tulane University that assessed data collected during the 2013–2014 harvest season, there were an estimated 1,203,473 child laborers ages 5 to 17 in the cocoa sector, of which 95.9 percent were engaged in hazardous work in cocoa production.(10) Table 1 provides key indicators on children’s work and education in Côte d’Ivoire.
