Nature, Sources and Causes of Political Instability

Abstract

Political instability is a social reality. Not even the advanced states of the world are completely immune from it, hence measures are put in place by serious state leaderships to reduce its occurrence to its barest minimum. However, a grasp of the nature, sources and causes of political instability is essential in any attempt to address the problem. This is the task this paper sets out to achieve. The paper is, therefore, an exposition of the nature, sources and causes of political instability.
