Anayasal Boşluğun Yerel Yönetim Sistemlerinin Performansına Etkisi: Mali Cumhuriyeti Örneği

Öz

Afrika'da anayasalar genellikle kırılgan olarak görülmektedir. Mali hem anayasal krizin hem de dayanıklılığın dikkate değer bir örneğidir. Yakın tarihi, 2012'deki askeri darbeden kaynaklanan anayasal bir zayıflığı göstermektedir. Bu durum, 1992 Anayasası hükümlerinin farklı bir geçiş döneminden sonra tehdit altında olduğunu açıkça göstermektedir. Çalışmamız, Mali'nin devam eden anayasal boşluğunun örneklediği kurumsal eksiklikler bağlamında yönetişim zorlukları ve siyasi örgütlenme stratejileri hakkındaki tartışmaya katkıda bulunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma, 2012'de siyasi krizi başlamasından bu yana devlette gerçekleşen değişiklikleri hesaba katarak, bu anayasal boşluğun Mali'deki yerel otoritelerin işleyişi üzerindeki etkisini inceleyecektir.

The Impact of Constitutional Vacuum on the Effectiveness of Decentralization: The Case of the Republic of Mali

Abstract

In Africa, constitutions are often seen as fragile. Mali serves as a notable example of both constitutional crisis and resilience. Its recent history illustrates a constitutional weakness stemming from the military coup in 2012. This situation indicates that the provisions of the 1992 Constitution are under threat after a different transitional period. Our study aims to contribute to the discussion on governance challenges and political organization strategies in the context of institutional shortcomings epitomized by Mali's ongoing constitutional vacuum. The research will examine the impact of this constitutional vacuum on the functioning of local authorities in Mali, taking into account the changes that have taken place in the state since the onset of political unrest in 2012.
