Produktbeschreibung

In 2013, the Central African Republic (CAR) Africa was the theatre of armed conflicts. The Economic Community of Central Africa States (ECCAS), a regional economic community of which the CAR is a member state became involved in the management of the CAR conflict. The CAR is a former French colony that became independent in 1960 where the successive regimes of the presidents Dacko (1960-1966), Jean-Bedel Bokassa (1966-1979), Ange-Felix Patassé (1993-2003) and Jean-Francois Bozizé (2003-2013) did not do enough to establish democratic institutions in the CAR [1]Between 1960 and 2013 five head of states acceded into power after staging coup d'états. There has been a propensity to resort in military means to become president than holding democratic elections. Except in 1993 and 2016, most elections held in the CAR were flawed [2]. Additionally, Bozizé's government thrived in political exclusion and discrimination which created resentment for the government. Bozizé failed to follow through several peace agreements signed by the Séléka and other armed groups between 2008 and 2013.
