Dissertation DISSERTATION Titel der Dissertation The Processes of Democratization in Global Comparison Strategic Choices of Oppositional Forces in Democratizing Societies with Case Studies of Ghana, Slovakia and Uganda Verfasserin Martina Ciganikova angestrebter akademischer Grad Doktorin der Philosophie (Dr. phil) Wien, 2010 Studiekennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 092 390 Dissertationsgebiet lt. Studienblatt: Afrikawissenschaften Betreuer: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Walter Schicho, Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dieter Segert Acknowledgments This PhD thesis was conducted within the framework of a three-year structural doctoral program, the Initiative Group Vienna School of Governance (ViGo), at the University of Vienna. In addition to the productive working environment the Initiative Group offered to its research fellows, my thesis could not have been accomplished without the support and assistance of my supervisors, friends, family and colleagues. First of all, I would like to thank my supervisors Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dieter Segert (Head of Political Science Department and ViGo faculty member) and Univ.-Prof. Dr. Walter Schicho (Head of African Studies Department) for their inputs, ideas, suggestions and recommendations, our fruitful discussions as well as their enthusiasm with respect to my research topic. My very special thanks go to a dear friend Conny (Pony) Rauchberger for being the best and most devoted editor I could have imagined. I am further grateful to ViGo Speaker Ass.-Prof. Dr. Josef Melchior for his commitment and support of my non-ViGo related activities, to Christina Plank (not only) for all the administrative back-up and to all fellow colleagues, especially Violeda Umali for her comments on the earlier drafts of my research proposal. I would also like to express my deep gratitude to my colleagues from the department of African Studies, all my friends and especially my partner for his patience and support when I got frustrated, felt stuck and did not see the end coming closer. However, the biggest THANK-YOU ever goes to my beloved mom, dad and brother for always being there for me. Dakujem! 2 Abstract This PhD thesis examines the role of oppositional forces in selected countries during their democratization period and explores how the choices and strategies of the opposition to enhance its competitiveness vis-à-vis the incumbent increase the likelihood of electoral autocracies to turn into electoral democracies. The dynamics of oppositional behavior and its role in protracted transitions are an important determinant for the processes of democratization by elections. My study concentrates on the game level (electoral competition/opposition choices) and analyses the various types of strategic choices and decisions employed by the oppositional forces in order to enhance their bargaining position for the inter-active dialogue with the meta-game level (incumbent position). By using examples of Ghana, Slovakia and Uganda I demonstrate how the selection of adequate strategic choices enables the opposition to improve its position and that the resulting “self- reinforcing” dynamics contribute to democratization of the society. The variation of actors’ choices when faced with the collapse of authoritarian regimes is not random as historical legacies at least initially shape the resources and expectations that help actors to define their interests and to select the ways and means to acquire political power. The operational tactics, behavior, and strategies applied by the oppositional forces in all selected case studies show many similarities and offer an interesting basis for a global approach for comparison of democratization processes and societies. The presented findings have been generated mainly from the conducted qualitative interviews with actors relevant to the transition processes during field research stays in all three countries of reference. 3 Abstrakt Diese Dissertation untersucht die Rolle oppositioneller Kräfte in ausgewählten Ländern im Zeitraum ihrer Demokratisierung und analysiert wie Wahlmöglichkeiten und Strategien der Opposition zur Steigerung ihrer Wettbewerbsfähigkeit gegenüber den Amtsinhabern die Wahrscheinlichkeit, Wahlautokratien in Wahldemokratien zu verwandeln, erhöht. Die Dynamiken oppositionellen Verhaltens und deren Rolle in langwierigen Transitionen sind eine wichtige Determinante für den Demokratisierungprozess durch Wahlen. Meine Studie konzentriert sich auf die Ebene des „game level“ (Konkurrenz bei Wahlen/ Handlungsmöglichkeiten der Opposition) und untersucht verschiedene Typen strategischer Wahlmöglichkeiten und Entscheidungen, die von den oppositionellen Kräften angewandt werden, um ihre Verhandlungsposition für einen interaktiven Dialog mit der Meta-Ebene des Wettbewerbs/ Handlungsspielraums (Amtsinhaberposition) zu verbessern. Anhand der Beispiele Ghana, Slowakei und Uganda zeige ich wie die Selektion von adäquaten strategischen Wahlmöglichkeiten es der Opposition ermöglicht, ihre Position zu verbessern und dass die daraus entstehenden „selbstverstärkenden“ Dynamiken zur Demokratisierung der Gesellschaft beitragen. Dass die Akteure ihre Wahlmöglichkeiten variieren, wenn sie mit dem Zusammenbruch des autoritären Regimes konfrontiert sind, passiert nicht zufällig, da diverse „legacies“ zumindest anfangs die Ressourcen und Erwartungen formen, die den Akteuren helfen, ihre Interessen zu definieren und die Wege und Mittel zu wählen, um politische Macht zu erlangen. Die operativen Taktiken, Verhalten und Strategien, die von den oppositionellen Kräften in jedem der ausgewählten Länder angewandt werden, weisen viele Ähnlichkeiten auf und bieten eine interessante Basis für einen globalen Ansatz, um Demokratisierungsprozesse und Gesellschaften zu vergleichen. Die vorliegenden Ergebnisse wurden hauptsächlich durch qualitative Interviews gewonnen, welche mit Akteuren, die für die Transitionsprozesse zentral sind, während Forschungsaufenthalten in allen drei genannten Ländern durchgeführt wurden. 4 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 8 1.1.
