Publisher's Synopsis
Controlling Consent is a multi and cross-disciplinary anthology on Uganda's 2016 elections. The book brought together a group of Ugandan researchers to provide a grounded analysis of the various dimensions of the elections and to reflect on the future governance and development implications of the franchise. Such an examination is especially important given that 2016 marked only the 3rd election under a multi-party system of government since the National Resistance Movement (NRM) under President Yoweri Museveni assumed power in 1986.
