As we have seen in the previous chapter, Uganda’s attempt at decentralization is at least one of the most ambitious in Africa, and could possibly be the most ambitious in Sub-Saharan Africa except for South Africa (Ndegwa 2002). It is thus worth revisiting its experience with a particular focus on the extent to which the decentralized structure of the LC system facilitates deliberative processes for resolving common issues at the grassroots. Assessing deliberation in Uganda generates important lessons for debating the direction and likelihood of development in the world in general, and Africa in particular.
