Beskrivning

Malawi's First Republic combines archival materials, government publications, newspapers and personal accounts to illustrate the problems of economic development and party politics in post colonial Africa. Malawi's economic development stands in stark contrast to its political reality. This book reviews the development of a one party system, the hero cult, implements of dissent, foreign and domestic policies, and the end of the First Republic.
