Pure Altered Gold

Pure Gold Altered: The Beninese Democratic Heritage under the TALON Presidency is the product of long observations and a long battle before the Constitutional Court of Benin to save and preserve The Beninese Democratic Heritage. Going beyond official speeches and declarations, the author, Dr. Eudes AOULOU, has painted a more realistic picture of the TALON Presidency (2016-2021) through an in-depth analysis. Powerful especially in the Principles of Constitutional Law, Dr. AOULOU has demonstrated how the Beninese Democratic Heritage has been substantially altered through undemocratic elections, the passing of iniquitous laws and the subtle and gradual erasure of constitutionally and historically established checks and balances. After briefly unveiling TALON's political philosophy and demonstrating the opacity of his governance, the author defends the virtues of Democracy in a clear and sharp style. He ends by presenting the choices before the Beninese People to restore and strengthen this precious heritage, a sure guarantee of collective and individual prosperity.
