Histoire politique du Senegal
Senegal occupies a special place in African history.
Longstanding relations with Europe, an early modern political life, independence marked by the stability of the regime and the personality of Léopold Sédar Senghor, a multiparty system that is quite rare on the continent... all these factors explain the appeal, even fascination, that Senegal exerts.
Gerti Hesseling's book describes the country's political history from the era of kingdoms to the term of the current president. The evolution described is set within the context of a fundamental theme: Senegal's adoption of the French political model and constitutional law.
While the legacy of the former colonial power still determines many aspects of Senegalese institutional life today, change has been undeniable since the early 1960s. Spurred on by new players on the political scene
— the Senegalese themselves — and determined by factors specific to society (the importance of the elite, the impact of Senghorism, the weight of clientelism, the strong influence of Islam, etc.), this evolution has substantially modified the old French “model” and shaped institutions that now have their own dynamic.
