Some literature on African underdevelopment and political instability has identified corruption as the cause of the continent s underdevelopment and military takeovers. The analyses of this study were focused essentially on determining if there is a causal relationship between the level of state corruption in Africa and the occurrence of military coups. In order to ascertain the nature of the relationship, a series of multivariate logistic regression models were developed, with state corruption as the primary variable of interest and with other socio-political and economic variables as possible intervening variables.
