Freedom of information law and good governance
the curse of corruption in Sierra Leone /[electronic resource] :by Emmanuel Saffa Abdulai. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2022. - xxiii, 420 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.
Chapter 1: Introduction: A Brief Global History of the Emergence, Evolution, Development and Proliferation of Freedom of Information: Principles Definitive of Scope and Substance -- Chapter 2: Myths Surrounding Freedom of Information Laws -- Chapter 3: How FOI aids women's Empowerment and redcues Gender and Sexual Based Violence -- Chapter 4: Comparative Analysis of Freedom of Information Laws in Sierra Leone and Liberia -- Chapter 5: Sierra Leone's Resource Curse: How the Abuse of Diamonds, Politics and Power Collapsed a Nation -- Chapter 6: War, Business as Usual: The Global Scramble for Sierra Leone's Natural Resources -- Chapter 7: Diamonds, War, Poverty and Underdevelopment: A Multidimensional Perspective on the Global Diamond Industry and its Need for Reform -- Chapter 8: The Place of FOI in the Second Republic -- Chapter 9: Localising Transparency and Accountability: Access to Information and Citizen Engagement Under the Local Government Act 2004 -- Chapter 10: The Effect of The EITI Process on Transparency and Accountability in Sierra Leone's Extractive Industry -- Chapter 11: Conclusion; Breaking Free of the Bog: The Need for a Novel Impetus in the Implementation of the RTAI Act 2013.
This book argues that Sierra Leone's ten-year civil conflict demonstrates the criticality of freedom of information (FOI) as a facet of good governance where corruption thrives, spanning both public and private sectors, if Sierra Leone's continued security and stability are to be ensured. It argues that it was the absence of an anti-corruption tool like FOI and its attendants, transparency, and accountability, in governance generally, and in the area of the extractive industry in particular, that lead to other social phenomena which directly sparked the war. It proffers that for the continued consolidation of peace, security, stability and development in Sierra Leone, transparency and accountability must be ensured by protecting and implementing the demand driven anti-graft FOI. Straddling the disciplines of law, political science, public policy, and history, the book's major premise is that it was the absence of FOI in the area of governance and the extractive industry, which enabled politicians, civil servants and the politically connected to ransom and exploit Sierra Leone's mineral resources for their own profit with impunity, a state of affairs which led to underdevelopment, state collapse and an embittered civil populace especially the youth. The book postulates that as such any attempt to ensure long-term peace in Sierra Leone, should seek to avoid replicating the conditions that gave rise to that gruesome conflict- elites expropriation of national resources through endemic graft. The book proposes the comprehensive and effective implementation of the Right to Information Act 2013.
