Pages : 396
Book Description
Comment gérer ce vaste espace qu' est l' Ancien Congo-Zaïre, actuelle République Démocratique du Congo? A l' issue de leur longue Conférence Nationale Souveraine (CNS), tenue au seuil des années 1990, les délégués réunis à Kinshasa ont tenté de répondre en adoptant un projet de Constitution pour une nouvelle République Fédérale du Congo. Mais ni le maître d' alors, ni son successeur n' en ont pris acte. Une décennie plus tard, ce document historique mérite qu' on s' y arrête. Les termes de cette constitution ont été rédigés en français, langue officielle de l' Etat, et traduits ensuite dans les 4 langues nationales.

Decentralization and Constitutionalism in Africa
Author: Charles M. Fombad
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192585037
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 673
Book Description
This collection of essays assesses the efforts of African governments to constitutionalise decentralisation, be it in the form of federalism, local government or traditional authorities. Since the end of the Cold War jurisdictions across Africa have witnessed an ostensible return to multi-party democracy within the paradigm of constitutionalism and the rule of law. Linked to the democratisation process, many countries took steps to decentralize power by departing from the heavily centralized systems inherited from colonial regimes. The centralization of power, typically characterized by the personalization and concentration of power in the hands of leaders and privileged elites in capital cities, mostly resulted in repressive regimes and fragile states. As decentralisation is a response to these challenges, this volume analyses the dynamic relationship between the efforts to implement decentralization and presence or absence of constitutionalism. This volume examines a variety of forms and degrees of decentralization found across Africa. It advances a new understanding of trends and patterns and facilitates the exchange of ideas among African governments and scholars about the critical role that decentralisation may play in democratization of and constitutionalism in Africa.
