• The Good Governance Agenda: Beyond Indicators without Theory (2008, background): “59 Chabal (2002) provides a nice discussion of this in the context of African governance, pointing out that neo-patrimonialism has dominated most African countries since independence.”
• A Triumph of Realism over Idealism? Cooperation Between the European Union and Africa (2005, background): “For comment on the prospects of NEPAD, see Chabal (2002), and De Waal (2002).”
