Este volumen editado examina el desarrollo y los desafÃos de la gobernanza, la democracia y los derechos humanos en Ãfrica.

The contributors appraise the implementation gap between law and practice and the need for institutional reform to build strong and robust mechanisms at the domestic, regional, and international levels.
