There follows a section on Pax Kenyatta, when Jomo Kenyatta remained the pivotal agency in the postcolonial transformation. The chapters on the Moi eralooks to the recent past, as well as forward to the future as Kenya tries to develop its democratic procedures. North America: Ohio U Press; Kenya: EAEP.
