| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The SADC-led mediation in Madagascar has once again come to a standstill. Personal antagonisms have brought to a halt a process that has gone as far as defining and reaching an agreement on the framework of a transition, one that could pave the way for the country's return to democratic order. As concerns are raised over the future of the political dialogue and the likelihood of political violence, it is critical that the mediation refocus to serve as an opportunity for reforms aimed at restoring political legitimacy. |
