Book synopsis

The post-conflict election in Côte d Ivoire in November 2010 was meant to conclude the country s transition from war-to-peace, to mark the beginning of a new era of peace and promote democratisation. Instead, the election triggered a military stand-off between the two major presidential candidates and plunged the country back into civil war. This book analyses the factors which allowed for the post-conflict election in Côte d Ivoire in 2010 to ruin the country s peace process. The analysis is based on the conceptual framework of Höglund et al., which brings together most of the major findings about post-conflict elections that have emerged in academic literature so far. The author argues that a whole range of conflict-generating factors, including the continuity of the major political actors, unfavourable institutional circumstances and the particularly high stakes of the election, were present.
