Section One is a collection of expertsí writing on key issues such as the single-party state; development policy; poverty, inequality and growth; the institutions of governance; the public service; and the role of civil society. Section Two, Idasaís Democracy Index 2010, releases Idasaís findings on Participation, Elections, Accountability, Political Freedom, Human Dignity and Democracy.
