| Summary: | Drawing on themes from Africa Yearbook chapters on Madagascar, this book charts the country's journey through some of its most turbulent years. Democracy, marked by uneven progress, has weathered repeated elections, an unconstitutional government overthrow, rising social movements, and shifting domestic and international alliances. During this time, Madagascar witnessed extraordinary per capita international donor investment, signaling both global interest and urgent need. Yet the country remains a paradox: a place where solid institutions and pockets of economic growth persist alongside some of the world's deepest poverty and most fragile democratic practices. It is a story of resilience, contradiction, and transformation. |
