Description

Customary Nationalism in Crisis examines eSwatini's pivotal moment following its fiftieth anniversary of independence and the COVID-19 pandemic, when citizens of Africa's last absolute monarchy staged unprecedented protests demanding democratic reform. This Routledge publication documents the government's brutal response to these voices and provides critical snapshots of life in the Kingdom before and after these transformative events. The book explores how governments wield custom and tradition as instruments of control, whilst simultaneously revealing the remarkable power of ordinary people to challenge entrenched systems. Drawing on eyewitness accounts and political analysis, it offers invaluable lessons for understanding the tension between state authority and popular resistance in contemporary Africa. Essential reading for those studying authoritarianism, social movements, and the struggle for democratic change in Southern Africa.
