The Crisis of the State and Regionalism in West Africa: Identity, Citizenship and Conflict
ISBN-13: 9782869781665 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 240 str.
This collection of essays critically interrogates the internal dimensions of the identity and citizenship crises at the root of the political crises of states in West Africa, and considers the steps that have been taken thus far to address them. It shows how the progressive alienation of ordinary people from the state, coupled with factors of historical identity and post-colonial citizenship are at the heart of the political crisis and conflicts in the region; and argues that these matters must be addressed if West African states are to achieve democratic nationhood.
