During the Windhoek launch of the book "Dominant Parties as Governments in Southern Africa" on July 13, 2023, Graham Hopwood, Executive Director of the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR), highlighted that the publication serves as a vital research tool for both students and policymakers to understand the region's shifting political landscape.
His critical reflections focused on the following themes:
• Changing Political Narratives: He noted that the book captures the evolving dynamics of former liberation movements that have transitioned into governing parties across Southern Africa, including Namibia, South Africa, and Zimbabwe.
• Challenges to Dominance: Hopwood emphasised that the work sheds light on the internal and external pressures these parties face, such as intra-party factions, breakaways, and the breakdown of long-standing political dominance.
• Socio-Economic Context: He pointed out that the Namibia-specific chapters specifically address critical issues like social change, the state of the economy, unemployment, and poverty, which directly impact the sustainability of party systems.
• Enhancing Discourse: He stated that the primary hope for the book is to contribute to and enhance knowledge of current political discourse in the SADC region, helping to navigate the complexities of democratic consolidation
