Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parliaments play a pivotal role in governance, and yet little is known about how evidence is used for decision-making in these complex, political environments. Together with its practice companion volume, African Parliaments: Systems of evidence in practice, this volume explores the multiple roles legislatures play in governance, the varied mandates and allegiances of elected representatives, and what this means for evidence use. Given the tensions in Africa around the relationships between democracy and development, government and citizen agency, this volume considers the theories around parliamentary evidence use, and interrogates what they mean in the context of African governance.

Book excerpt: Working together across religious, ethnic, and class divisions, African women are helping to formulate legislation and foster democracies more inclusive of women's interests. Women in African Parliaments explores this phenomenon, examining the impact and experiences of African women as they seek increased representation in national legislatures. The authors' carefully constructed case studies allow cross-national comparisons of the range of strategies that African women have used to achieve greater involvement in national politics. A unique feature of the work is the voices of African women themselves, who explain how they achieved or continue to fight for electoral success, how they learned to work with lifelong adversaries, and how they have begun to transform their parliaments.

Book excerpt: The role parliaments play in governance is fundamentally political, and as a result, the institutional side of parliamentary organisations is often overlooked. This volume, together with the theoretical volume African Parliaments: Evidence systems for governance and development, takes a practical look at African parliaments as institutions, and explores the ways in which their structures and processes influence the use of evidence for decision making. A comparative approach helps the reader get a practical view of how this governance interplay is enacted within portfolio committees, on chamber floors, and on the campaign trail. This volume looks at various models parliaments have used to institutionalise evidence use, and considers the implications this has for governance.

Book excerpt: African Youngest of those States must study, why do those States Rwanda, Somalia, and Democratic Republic of Gongo, Sierra Leone, Liberia, South Sudan, and Mauritania, Chad, get Civil Wars? Then, you are acting anything, but discovered land of the Civil War of 1991.Then, we are going to created parties, Chief of Parties, and do I used to work for the former Somalia President “Mohamed Siyad Barre '' government? Then he died State of Nigeria, around 2005. African youngest will need new groups such as “African Democratic Party, African Republic Party, and African Youth Party”. They will be changed in 2030 to 2050; they got guns and clashed Youngest, and no Party, No good Politician, and argument each other. Right now, fighting with the “African Civil Right Movement, and Corruption Leaders are against each other ''. They have leadership in poorest government, but they are Central provinces. According to Holy-Quran 1. “They ask you about the bounties. Say, “The bounties are for Allah and the Messenger.” So be mindful of Allah, and settle your differences, and obey Allah and His Messenger, if you are believers”. . (surah, al-anfal, 1) 2. “Allah has promised you one of the two groups—that it would be yours—but you wanted the unarmed group to be yours. Allah intends to prove the truth with His words, and to uproot the disbelievers”. (surah, al-anfal, 7) 3. “We sent Noah to his people. He said, “O my people! Worship Allah; you have no god other than Him. I fear for you the punishment of a tremendous Day.” (surah, al-raaf, 59) 4. “The arrogant elite among his people said, “O Shuaib, We will evict you from our town, along with those who believe with you, unless you return to our religion.” He said, “Even if we are unwilling?” .” (surah, al-raaf, 88) 5. “We would be fabricating falsehood against Allah, if we were to return to your religion, after Allah has saved us from it. It is not for us to return to it, unless Allah, our Lord, wills. Our Lord embraces all things in knowledge. In Allah we place our trust. Our Lord, decide between us and our people in truth, for You are the Best of Deciders.” (surah, al-raaf, 89) 6. “And when they despaired of him, they conferred privately. Their eldest said, “Don’t you know that your father received a pledge from you before Allah, and in the past you failed with regard to Joseph? I will not leave this land until my father permits me, or Allah decides for me; for He is the Best of Deciders.” (surah, yusuf , 80). The SDP, SRP, and SYP will go forward from federalist factions in the state to State. They can oppose the new politician, and States. It will need to work on development, check and balances. Since independence days in 1960s.. African used to work with them. The parties favored stating right and authoritarian independence, to the constitution, and they opposed a national party in the future. These parties will be starting peace, as well as other interests. Somalis Democratic Party willingly ascended to power of states, and Somalia in the election of 2000. However, SDP, SRP, and SYP will be working on politician, Non-organization, that typically looks to influence State government. Many parties usually nominated and failed good leaders, their own candidates themselves, and they were trying to get a seat in the government in the politicians office. This party did not have participated in the election campaign in the 2000, after “Carto meeting”, they came out, but new led by the party has education outreach of the country. New parties will protest action in the party or make disagreement between them.

This book was released on 2023-05-11 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a crisis such as a public emergency, the effectiveness of parliaments should be assessed by considering their ability to activate in a timely manner the necessary disaster management legislative framework, and to provide oversight to ensure that such legislation is applied by the executive in a necessary, non-discriminatory and proportional way. There are various global and regional frameworks designed to guide parliaments on improving and assessing their effectiveness. The question is whether these guidelines were relevant and helpful as a resource for aiding effective parliamentary responses to the Covid-19 pandemic.
