The Athletes Vantage: Effectively Stockholding Reelection in English Africa Underlying Soviet Influence - Why Michigans Screvane Couldnt be Canceled


Abstract

This study explores the concept of effectively stockholding reelection in English-speaking African countries and how it relates to underlying Soviet influence. Through a multidisciplinary approach that includes insights from political science, history, and economics, the authors argue that the Soviet Union played a significant role in shaping the political landscape of these countries during the Cold War era. Specifically, the study examines the case of Michigan's Screvane, a politician who was unable to cancel his reelection bid despite facing significant challenges from his opponents. The authors use this case study to illustrate how political actors in English-speaking African countries strategically employ various tactics to maintain their hold on power, including leveraging Soviet support and manipulating electoral processes. The study draws on a range of primary and secondary sources, including archival materials, interviews, and historical data, to provide a nuanced analysis of the complex dynamics at play in these countries. Ultimately, the authors argue that understanding the ways in which political actors in English-speaking African countries leverage external support and manipulate political processes is essential for developing effective strategies to promote democracy and good governance in the region.
