"A Critical Examination of Jeremiah John Rawlings" is a comprehensive analysis of the life and political career of Jeremiah John Rawlings, a significant Ghanaian Air Force pilot and populist politician. Rawlings ruled Ghana for nearly two decades, from December 1981 to September 2000, undergoing a remarkable transformation from a military leader to a democratically elected president. This monograph offers a critical look at the historical events and political developments that shaped both the military and civilian administration under Rawlings. The author, Rudi Somuah, highlights the complex and often controversial personality of Rawlings and examines the impact of his policies on Ghana. The analysis is relevant for both political science students and those interested in Ghanaian history.
