Journal Article
Assessing the Role of the African Union in Addressing Democratic Recession in Africa
2024
Overview
Recent coups in Sub-Saharan Africa underscore a concerning trend of democratic backsliding, despite the institutional efforts of the African Union (AU). The existing continental and regional mechanisms designed to prevent unconstitutional government changes have proven largely ineffective. This article argues that the AU must critically reassess its convention on unconstitutional government changes to address its inherent shortcomings. Employing document analysis as the primary methodology, this study systematically evaluates the AU's mechanisms, aiming to enhance their operational efficiency. A comprehensive assessment of the AU's successes and challenges will illuminate essential areas requiring strategic reform. This is because reinforcing the commitment to democratic governance among African states is crucial for the sustainability of democratic institutions. Achieving this necessitates the establishment of robust frameworks that promote democratic practices and ensure accountability at both regional and national levels.
