The Bullets After The Ballots

Inclusive democracy: an ideal which, regardless of many democratic state-building efforts, is often difficult to establish and consolidate, especially in the complex and deeply divided contexts of fragile and conflict-affected settings. This research will focus on the relationship between political institutions and political inclusion and on other, informal characteristics of political practice that define political inclusion specifically in these fragile and conflict-affected settings. It specifically focuses on Burundi and Mozambique.
