Other Articles, Papers and Presentations on Kenya

Hornsby, ​"The Social Structure of the National Assembly in Kenya, 1963-83", Journal of Modern African Studies, Vol. 27, No. 2, 1989.
This was based on part of my D.Phil. Thesis on the Role of the Member of Parliament in Kenya. It is - I guess - still in copyright, but as it is from 1986, I cant imagine anyone would complain if I put up a scanned pdf:

Rutten. Mazrui and Grignon, Fountain, 2001.

I published nothing under my own name on Kenya between starting on Kenya: A History Since Independence in 2000 and its eventual publication in 2011, though I wrote or posted material on Facebook for a few friends and colleagues leading up to and after both the 2002 and 2007 polls. I also provided ad hoc advice to the UK FCO staff on Kenya from time to time.

After the 2013 poll, I gave a presentation at the African Studies Centre Leiden in November on "The first Six Months of the new Jubilee Government"

In 2017, I wrote a series of four articles reviewing events and predicting the results of the election in John Githongo's The Elephant. I was pretty accurate on what was going to happen, and a result took some abuse from NASA "haters" on social media, as I must have been part of their perceived rigging conspiracy.
