| dc.description.abstract | It is sometimes argued that political funding in Africa has a distinctive character. Some scholars claim that a particular form of party–state linkage may be prevalent across Africa in which parties amass money from the state through patronage, clientelistic practices and political corruption (Van Biezen and Kopecky 2007; Basedau et al. 2007). The exploration of non-African cases, however, can help illuminate the common patterns that exist across a wider range of societies. In this way it can shed light on African political financing practices. The pathologies surrounding political finance in many African states, such as clientelism, influence-buying and corruption, are important aspects of political life across the developing world – and also, one might add, in the states of the north. | |
