The Oxford Handbook of Kenyan Politics is the most up-to-date and comprehensive volume on Kenyan politics available. In addition to providing an insightful account of Kenyan history from 1930 to the present day, it covers the most important topics that students and researchers are interested in, including the legacy of colonial rule, ethnicity, land politics, devolution, the constitution, elections, democracy, foreign aid, the informal economy, civil
society, human rights, the International Criminal Court, the growing influence of China, economic policy, electoral violence, and the impact of mobile phone technology. Drawing together 50 specially commissioned
chapters by leading researchers in Kenya, the United Kingdom and the United States, it also features chapters on every part of the country, and is therefore uniquely thorough, inclusive, and cutting-edge.
