This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inadequacies of many past studies that have tried to highlight the causes of the persistent underdevelopment in developing countries—such as Nigeria—have been noted to derive mainly from the focus and, in some cases, the methodologies adopted by the researchers. It has been suggested that, although many researchers recognize the inability to reproduce sufficient profit as undermining the capitalist accumulation process (and as a result the development of an economy), they have nevertheless often tended to ignore the importance of the political-economic arrangement and historical factors in the formation of expectations about the rate of profit. Indeed, in some cases, they have failed to provide a substantive account of these critical variables. This book highlights how the inherent contradictions of the contemporary political-economic arrangement and some historical factors undermined the peculiar capital accumulation processes in Nigeria, which, in turn, has slowed economic development in the country. This book contributes to the field of Nigeria studies by filling gaps that exist in both theoretical and empirical literature on growth and development in the country, deviating from the orthodox approach of analysing the nation’s problems purely based on the factors internal to the country and by imposing ready-made theoretical logics on history. Rather, it studies Nigeria’s problems in juxtaposition with the world system and imposes historical evidence on theoretical logics. This book represents a good resource for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses on area studies. Researchers and policy-makers will also find it useful as a reference.

Book excerpt: Aggregate Economic performance in Nigeria for the past three decades had been poor and disappointing in contrast to the robust economic performance of other developing countries. For instance Nigeria's Real Per capita GDP in 1995 was 260 dollars almost the same as it was in 1972 despite huge investment in the private and public sectors of the economy while the Real Per capita GDP OF South Korea was 3,890 dollars in 1995. Nigerians are poorer today than they were in the 1960's and 1970.s. The study disaggregated capital accumulation into public, foreign and domestic private and empirically measure their impact on economic development and advise policy makers the sector to play leading role in the development process The study use time series data. Group unit root test was carried to ascertain the stationary status of the data in order to avoid spurious regression result. Co-integration and ECM test was also carried out. The result shows a significant positive contribution of Foreign private and positive but insignificant contribution of public and domestic private capital to economic development. The public, private sectors, undergraduate and graduate students are the target.

This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Income inequality is a serious problem confronting not only the developed world but also developing countries. Recently, financialization has been one of the culprits identified in literature as one of the cause of income inequality. This book offers the only detailed presentation of the how financialization aided the spread of income inequality in Organization of Islamic Cooperation, OIC countries. Finance has taking a center stage in the affairs of most developing economies, surpassing the real sector of the economy. The result is the creation of an indebted society in which people are comfortable with financing their financial needs through credit. This creates a debt laden society that is trapped in the cycle of debt. This book represents a comprehensive and indispensable source for students, practitioners and the general public at large. It presents data which shows the buildup of debt and the rising income inequality in Muslim countries. It includes discussion of the rise in rentier income, financialization of everyday life, decline in physical capital accumulation and deregulation of the financial sector. The book therefore, proffers solutions on how Muslim countries can come out of the present economic problem facing them. The promotion and adoption of Islamic principles, which promotes risk sharing based contracts as against debt based transaction is the way to go. When financial contracts are based on the principles of risk sharing, any gains from economic activities get to be shared equitably. Hence, not only capital owners get to enjoy the benefit from the income derived from investments, but rather, all parties that partake in the contract. Distinguished by its clarity and readability as it is written in a very easy to understand language, it is an important reference work for any concerned individual interested on the recent causes of income inequality in Muslim World.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since achieving independence in 1960, Nigeria has suffered through a civil war, the overthrow of elected governments in repeated military coups, and severe economic crises. This study looks at the country's economic development under these conditions and in light of Nigeria's status as a Third World nation with an economy largely dependent on foreign capital and international markets. Focusing on state economic policy, Ohiorhenuan assesses Nigeria's development as a dependent capitalist economy under military rule and identifies both the factors that promote this type of development and those that constrain it. After describing the country's current economic state, Ohiorhenuan discusses the relationship between economic dependency and capitalist development in Nigeria and then considers the economic policies of successive military regimes. Specific topics include the military's capital accumulation program and management of the economy, the restructuring of property rights, the critical role of Nigeria's oil surplus, and the government's attempts to control the organized working class. In a study of two types of collaboration between the state and transnational capital, Ohiorhenuan explores the limitations on direct governmental accumulation of capital. This systematic and incisive examination of Nigeria's political economy is a significant contribution to the understanding of Third World development processes. This book is a useful resource for policy research, studies or classes dealing with modern Africa, with Third World development, and international political economy.

Book excerpt: It is clear that a lot remains to be learnt about the role of the financial sector in African growth and development process. All three papers in this volume focus on the existing consensus in the literature that there seems to be a positive relationship between financial development and economic progress. Harris aptly draws attention to the broad association between financial sector development and economic growth, and Murinde even suggests that financial development may be as important as human capital accumulation. Andersen et al., in turn, are more sceptical and bring out the existing ambiguities, both theoretical and empirical, underlying the finance-growth consensus. They highlight that existing empirical results are far from robust, a point also clearly subscribed to by Harris. Consequently, the contributors are agreed that the usefulness of the existing literature is severely constrained when it comes to drawing up policy relevant conclusions.

This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book delves into the regional organization in both form and content and pinpoints why, since 1975 political dysfunction and self-help undermine the economic arrangement within the sub region. It highlights the most systematic analysis of how policies are half implemented and laws enacted to move the region forward failed to make any difference. From China’s imperialistic ambitions on West Africa, the economic integration to Morocco’s attempt and the single currency, Mansourou takes readers deep into political criminality and relies on impressive quantitative analysis to reach compelling and unusual outcomes. He argues against the tide of unnecessary Chinese Killer loans that is spreading across West Africa.
