Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.

This first paperback edition - with a new introduction - recounts the drama of a remarkably successful experiment that introduced farmer organization for self-managed development in the largest and most run down, conflict-ridden irrigation system in Sri-Lanka, and now updates the story to record the author's picture of Gal Oya in 1996. Gal Oya, initially considered one of the least desirable areas in the country, became one of the most progressive and peaceful during the 1980's. People reshaped their working and living conditions and accomplished changes no-one previously thought possible. In an unusual combination of description and analysis, Norman Uphoff seeks to interpret the Gal Oya project and draws far-reaching conclusions for participatory development and contemporary social science. He documents and analyses the remarkable progress made by farmers, community organizers, researchers and, finally, policy-makers, iteratively forging progressive changes in the midst of ethnic and political strife.

This volume contains electoral studies of multiparty politics in 14 African countries during the 1990s. Most are about national elections in Anglophone Africa. There are also less well-known examples from Sudan, Ethiopia and Guinea Bissau. The collection also features studies of the local elections in Namibia and of a significant by-election in Malawi. The multiparty period had been put, wherever possible, within the historical context of earlier elections in Africa. Questions addressed include: how did incumbent governing regimes learn to live with multiparty politics? Why have some elections been so closely fought and others have suffered from apathy? Why has there been relatively open political expression and activity when the elections have increased the political and economic manipulation by incumbent governments? Why have the elections of the 1990s been so marked by local and ethnic variations? To what extent did this wave of democracy result from pressure from donor countries?
