The alternation fallacy : turnover without transformation in Zambia (1991-2015)Ismail, Zenobia January 2018 (has links)
Zambia is one of only three countries in southern Africa which has experienced two alternations, but there has been little institutional reform since independence. A time-based comparison of Zambia’s constitution, legislation and institutions from 1991 to 2015 is conducted because the ‘moving picture’ reveals continuities which tend to be overlooked by a ‘snapshot’ analysis. New incumbents are reluctant to relinquish the increasing returns derived from executive dominance and weak oversight institutions such as the national assembly and judiciary. Therefore, institutional weaknesses from Zambia’s one-party state have infiltrated the multi-party era, where they continue to blur the separation of powers. Factionalism stemming from ethnic polarisation, which emerged in the colonial era, undermines all ruling parties in Zambia. The study finds that succession contests, triggered by term limits or the deaths of sitting presidents, are the primary mechanism which repeatedly weakens dominant parties. The outcomes of such intra-party conflicts have far-reaching consequences for the political party system by giving rise to new parties, re-orientating ethnic and political alliances, and contributing to turnover in elections. However, the dissertation reveals that both the Movement for Multi-Party Democracy and the Patriotic Front governments in Zambia reneged on the reforms which they promised while in opposition and opted to maintain the constitutional clauses, repressive legislation and patronage system which they inherited. An extensive analysis of the 35 by-elections which occurred after the 2011 turnover ascertains that there was pervasive co-option of opposition members into the Patriotic Front, leading back to the dominant path. Therefore, the dissertation concludes that one-party dominance in Zambia is path dependent. Consequently, it is an alternation fallacy to expect the ousting of a dominant party to stimulate democratisation. Democracy advocates will need to confront the challenge of providing incentives that will persuade incumbents to undertake reforms which diminish executive dominance and strengthen the independence of oversight institutions.

A study of the involvement and participation of employees in a workplace HIV-prevention programme at a Bulawayo tyre manufacturing firmNcube, Charlie 06 1900 (has links)
Employee involvement and participation in HIV-prevention interventions at the workplace remains a barrier to effective programme implementation, which contributes significantly to programme failure and the consequent continued spread of HIV among employees at the workplace. This study explores employee involvement and participation in HIV-prevention interventions at a Bulawayo tyre manufacturing firm. It assesses factors affecting employee involvement and participation in these interventions, and examines the implications of these findings for programme implementation. I used a semi-standardised interview schedule to conduct in-depth, face-to-face qualitative interviews and a self-administered questionnaire to collect quantitative data. The responses showed the nature of employee involvement in HIV-prevention at the firm was at a co-option level, and the type of participation was mere token participation. I recommended that the firm should develop a clear understanding of the importance of stakeholder involvement in HIV-prevention programmes. / Sociology / M.A. (Social Behaviour Studies in HIV/AIDS)

Volba a odvolání členů představenstva a dozorčí rady akciové společnosti ve srovnávacím pohledu / Election and removal of members of the governing and supervisory boards of a joint stock company from a comparative perspectiveKolarczyková, Eva January 2013 (has links)
Election and removal of members of the governing and supervisory boards of a joint stock company from a com- parative perspective The diploma thesis deals with the ways of the appointment and removal of the members of the governing and supervisory boards of a joint stock company in the Czech Republic and in Great Britain. It focuses on three main areas: the appointment, removal and the eligibility of members of the governing and supervisory boards of a joint stock company. The aim of the thesis is not only to describe the Czech and British legal provisions on these topics, but also to compare and evaluate them. Within the scope apart from other things it attempts to answer these questions: whether the new Czech Companies Act which will come into force on the 1st January 2014 has been influenced to some extent by the British Companies Act 2006 or whether British pattern did not offer any inducement to any change. The thesis consists of seven chapters. The first three chapters analyse legislation of the Czech Republic. They describe legal provisions of the cur- rent Commercial Code and compare them with the provisions of the new Companies Act and the new Civil Code. The next three chapters describe British law. The last chapter compares and evaluates legislations of both states. The first chapter...
