- Summary:
- "[This work] interrogates some of the reasons why succession is a subject rarely discussed in Zambia and among many other politicians on the continent. However, though colonialism is often blamed for the bulk of Africa's ills, this analogy argues that there is also something amiss with the way our leaders come into power... The succession narrative on Zambia is merely a case study about Africa's wider problem; it is an issue rarely discussed among most leaders from Cape to Cairo."--Preface.
