Uprising Politics and Populist Democracy in Ghana 1979-2005.

Jeremiah John Rawlings, a Ghanaian air force pilot and populist politician, ruled Ghana for almost two decades, from December 1981 to September 2000. Rawlings, who began his leadership career as a military ruler, later became a democratically elected president through a successful process of political transmutation. As a revolutionary politician, John Rawlings was as charismatic as he was controversial. This monograph critically examines historical accounts and major political events that shaped the Rawlings-led military and civilian administrations.
