Originally published as journal articles in the period 1986-2010, these essays address various aspects of African politics, governance and development as they have been shaped by social and state formations and processes. The formations and processes mostly take their bearings from colonialism whose structural entrenchments have made it the most impactful event in Africa's history.
With his characteristic insights as well as the unique perspective he brings to his favourite subject — Africa and its place in the world — one of the continent's most consistently engaging voices, EghosaOsaghae provides a magisterial and sweeping look at the state of affairs on the continent over several decades. Perspectives on African Politics, Governance and Development is a timely, and invaluable resource for students, social scientists, historians, scholars, as well as for social and political leaders.
