520 |a Civil society is comprised of various interest groups through which individuals collectively carry out their social enterprises. The rise to centrality of civil society academic discourse in regard to Africa's development and democratisation processes has been in response to state weakness and authoritarianism. (...) This article contends that the success of civil society in forcing political concessions in Africa relates to the availability of opportunity to mobilise, agitate and bargain with the state from a position of strength in the struggle for the opening up of public spaces. However, the notion that a generic civil society is uniformly progressive in challenging the African authoritarian state and advancing democratisation may not be accurate. Civil society conceptions require a deep understanding of civil societies in their own terms. There are limits to what civic pressure can achieve in the absence of concurrent reform of the state itself. This comparative study attempts to bring out the underlying similarities and differences in the contribution of the Christian church and NGOs as civil society organisations to the democratisation processes in Kenya and Uganda.
