Abstract:

Many authors have written and documented this illustrious and selfless son of the African continent, highlighting his unique kind of leadership different from the one that the African continent has ever experienced for a generation. His style of leadership for four years (1983–1987) as president of Burkina Faso eclipsed several African despots and corrupt leaders before and after Thomas Sankara. This article has three purposes as follows: first, to explore and celebrate the short-lived life of Thomas Sankara, and his legacies. Second, to critically evaluate his solid leadership characteristics

Abstract:

Captain Thomas Sankara, Comrade President of Burkina Faso, was assassinated on 15 October 1987, allegedly in accordance with the wishes of Captain Blaise Compaoré, Major Jean-Baptiste Lingani, and Captain Henri Zongo. These three officers, said to have feared for their lives, had ordered the arrest of Sankara in order to avoid plunging their country into a blood-bath. The radio broadcast announcing the execution referred to Sankara as a ‘renegade’, a ‘traitor to the revolution’, ‘an autocratic mystic’, and a ‘paranoid misogynist’. It added that the ex-President's ‘high treason’ was illustrated

Abstract:

This article is an inquiry into the origins, the ideological basis, political and economic organization and prospects of the Populist Revolution ushered in Burkina Faso (formerly Upper Volta) by the military coup d’état of 4 August 1983 led by Captain Thomas Sankara. Set against an inauspicious background of scarce resources, dismal poverty, recurrent drought and regional and international hostility, and occurring at a time when Socialism is on the wane in Africa, the coup initially seemed doomed to failure. The very fact that it has been able to survive for almost three years in such an unfav

Abstract:

La rivoluzione burkinabé, scoppiata il 4 agosto 1983 e guidata da Thomas Sankara, ha prodotto diversi importanti cambiamenti politici, economici e sociali nel Burkina Faso. Forse il segno più importante l'ha lasciato nelle menti e nei cuori della popolazione burkinabé: la convinzione che le cose si possono cambiare con coraggio e determinazione, che nulla è già deciso e che si può dire “no”, sia pur pagandolo a caro prezzo, a meccanismi di assoggettamento e impoverimento imposti dai grandi poteri internazionali. È questo il messaggio che la rivoluzione di Sankara ha lasciato, non solo in Burki

In the second half of the Twentieth century a distinctive phenomenon crossed through Sub-Saharan Africa that modified not only the geopolitical aspect of the continent, but also the worldly north-south relation. From 1957 until 1990 all African countries had been freed from the burden of colonialism. The new leaders of these countries, who had lead liberation movements in the previous decades, strongly condemned (neo)-colonialism and advocated for a new international order in which African and Asian countries could have a greater voice. Among these leaders, Kwame Nkrumah stands out as he contr

Abstract (from thesis text) From Upper Volta to Burkina Faso, is the study of the politics of reaction and reform in a post-colonial nation-state of Burkina Faso. Since its independence from France on 5 August 1960 to 15 October 1987, Burkina Faso, the "land of the upright" people, has experience five changes in government. All of the coups that took place in this twenty-seven year period were reactionary and reforming. However, the most memorable reforms arrived after the coup of 4 August 1983 which gave rise to a youthful president in a thirty-three year old Captain Thomas Sankara. As the le
