Why does the “rule by the people” not seem to work as we know it? Are the coups a destruction of democracy and/or are they forces to restore the rule of the people? Professor Jeremias Zunguze, discusses the underlying historical and cultural factors that have combined to shape African democracy, where various forms of power and governance have continued to compete for sovereignty and monopoly, often resulting in seasonal-like military coups, civil wars, and proxy wars. www.wacmb.org or call (831) 643-1855 11:15am Registration • 11:45am Luncheon • 12:45-2pm Speaker Presentation Reservations Required • Deadline is Sunday, April 21 $36 for members • $41 for guests WACMB will accept auditors to this event Hilton Garden Inn, Aguajito Road, Monterey Visit our website www.wacmb.org for information and reservations Our 65+ Bay Area locations let us peek at a lot more boos.
