Constraints on Political Order in Uganda Jimmy Kazaara Tindigarukayo (Phd)

Political order, defined in terms of the absence of sustained societal conflict, violence, and instability has been an elusive goal rather than a reality in most developing countries, and more particularly those in Africa. Rather than moving towards political order thus defined, majority of African countries have been characterized by political instability, constitutional crises, breakdown of law and order, social and cultural conflict, military coups, economic dislocation, and the like. In other words, most African countries have been moving towards political disorder rather than order.
