Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyse the different political systems in Mali since independence (September 22, 1960) until the democratic evolution in 1991. It also aims to give an overview of the political situation in Mali since the beginning of democracy. This will allow us to make a sort of comparison between the two periods. Thus, to see the nexus between stability and democratic evolution. The peculiarity of Mali’s democratic evolution is linked to various phenomena, among them the security instability in the country and the presence of terrorism, which has jeopardized peace and security and all development initiatives. However, the question is whether there is a link between the insecurity that has pervaded Mali for more than 10 years and democratization in Mali. Looking at Mali’s democracy, we can see that Mali has not been able to escape political and security crises, despite being considered a positive example in the practice of democracy. That is always, interrupted by military coups that hinder the democratic development of the country. To validate or test this hypothesis, the first part describes Mali’s political regimes since independence. In the second part, the focus will be on the evolution of democracy and its link to insecurity in Mali.
