This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa today confronts, and is known for, daunting developmental challenges, despite the abundant human and material resources and significant global development assistance. A number of issues have been identified as causes of the continent’s poor development performance. However, a number of these implicated issues have been insufficiently unaccounted for, and the majority of existing analysis on them is too generic and misinformed. Against this background, this book uses Nigeria as an example to contribute knowledge and informed research to the wider African continent. Nigeria is the most populous nation in Africa, and is one of the continent’s most resource-endowed countries, but, despite this, it is one of the poorest countries in the entire world. While many studies have examined the country in depth, its continued development complications and its paradoxical status on the world stage suggest that there is still a need to better understand the country. Even though the issues of Nigeria are engaged with directly in this book, the findings have implications and relevance for the rest of the continent and many other developing countries in general. As such, this book will be of particular interest to all development students, scholars, practitioners and policy makers, especially those interested in the sustainable development of Africa, both now and in the future.

Download or read book Regional Disparities in Nigeria s Development written by Ebenezer O. Aka and published by Upa. This book was released on 2000 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major concerns in international development today is the effectiveness of programs for promoting widespread socio-economic growth in a country. In Regional Disparities in Nigeria's Development, Ebenezer Aka investigates whether planning programs have encouraged or hindered substantial socio-economic development throughout Nigeria. He provides an overview of the various development programs that have been implemented, discussing their objectives, strategies and performances as well as their implications for the 21st century. He reveals that over time there has actually been a divergence rather than a convergence of regional disparities and inequalities, which he meticulously analyzes from socio-cultural, economic, political and administrative perspectives. An indispensable resource for Nigerian policy makers, this book will also interest social scientists who study international development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African Families in the Twenty-First Century explores the idea that the family is the basic unit of society and an enduring multifunctional institution in Africa. The functions and structures of African families, as well as the multiple roles played by Africa's women, are undergoing structural changes. The ways in which education, employment, and current economic conditions reshape these complex roles are immense. The challenges facing African families and their members-such as globalization, war, poverty, economic restructuring, reproductive health, HIV/AIDS, harmful traditional practices, aging, and care and support of the elderly-have magnified due to a series of economic, social, political, religious, ecological, and other related factors. Author Aderanti Adepoju explores the vulnerability and resilience of African families in the face of these crises and challenges. He also looks at the opportunities facing African families in the new millennium. Because of the importance of African families to the development process, African Families in the Twenty-First Century is essential reading for planners, policy makers, activists, academics, and students.
