    About this ebook

    This book is written for a general audience and deliberately avoids academic jargon. It is intended for leaders at all levels and global citizens that take interest in democratic transitions in Africa. It is, however, recommended university reading. It examines five fault lines in Uganda's quest for a peaceful transition. The role of the army in Uganda's politics (a politicized army); the elusive capacity of Uganda's opposition to deliver change; an electoral system which is unrepresentative; barriers to regional integration and the often avoided but significant Muslim factor in Uganda's politics. The book has been deliberately designed in a way that each chapter can be read independent of the other.
