Benin is now perceived of as a model of democracy in Africa because it has successfully
established a democratic political system based on consensus and regular and fair
elections, and it continues to improve its electoral and parliamentary systems. Since
its democracy it has taken important steps towards laying the foundation for the rule
of law by establishing stable political institutions that can withstand the test of
time. It has also engaged in an important legal, institutional, and regulatory reform
to establish a more favorable environment for private initiative. The fourth edition
of Historical Dictionary of Benin covers its history through a chronology, an introductory
essay, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 900 cross-referenced
entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion,
and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and
anyone wanting to know more about Benin
