This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the contested notions of territory and belonging in Nigeria, most especially among the Fulani and other ethnic groups in Kaduna. The book argues that these controversies center around Indigenous, nomadic, and autochthonous claims of belonging. The author identifies these differing notions of belonging as a major condition of violent conflicts in Kaduna and across various postcolonial societies. The author’s analysis demonstrates how dynamic ideological impetuses for these conflicts underscore broader issues of citizenship rights, nationhood, and local peacebuilding in Nigeria.

Download or read book Inter-ethnic and Religious Conflict Resolution in Nigeria written by Ernest E. Uwazie and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 1999 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1982, Nigeria has experienced more than ten large scale ethnic or religious riots in its major cities. These violent clashes have wreaked economic, political, and social havoc; caused an enormous number of deaths and injuries; and posed serious obstacles to Nigeria's sociopolitical development as well as retarded efforts at nation-building. The papers collected in this book serve as a critical part of an overall objective to develop and promote mechanisms for the understanding and resolution of ethnic and religious conflicts in Nigeria. Both academic and community leaders address various aspects of these conflicts, and Uwazie offers several thoughtful options for their successful resolution. Inter-Ethnic and Religious Conflict Resolution in Nigeria will interest students of African history and current affairs, scholars of anthropology and ethnicity studies, and those involved in international relations and peace studies.

Book Synopsis The Application of Biblical Principles of Conflict Transformation in Ethno-religious Situations in Jos and Kaduna, Nigeria by : Priscilla Anyango Adoyo

This book was released on 2007 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peacebuilding is at the very heart of the Gospel message and should be prominent in the life of the Church. This research was a qualitative and descriptive study seeking to examine how Christian leaders in Jos and Kaduna use the Bible to inform their responses and reactions to the ethno-religious conflict in order to bring about peace. For the most part, the study utilizes John Paul Lederach's alternative transformational approach to conflict resolution as the basis for the research in understanding the church's role in peacebuilding. This is because John Paul's theory embraces a holistic approach that is more suitable for the context of the study. It is crucial for the church to be on the cutting edge in addressing issues contributing to the various conflicts on the continent in order to maintain her relevance to society and to fulfill her missiological mandate. The data revealed that tribalism, ethnic and religious intolerance, poor leadership, poverty and lack of knowledge and skills on how to engage the peacebuilding process are significant hindrances to the peace process. The Church in Jos and Kaduna needs to realize and understand the need to be more strategic in its planning for training leaders and to put into practice biblically sound and culturally sensitive strategies for peacebuilding. She needs to be more proactive with the future in mind and not reactionary as has been the case on many occasions. The call to living out Christ's mission as a community must also be taken seriously if the church is to be a witness to the world.

Book Synopsis NGOs and Ethno-religious Conflict Management by : Musa Adamu Wunti
Download or read book NGOs and Ethno-religious Conflict Management written by Musa Adamu Wunti and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis analyses the role of NGOs in managing ethno-religious conflicts and examines why their strategies make them effective role players in the Bauchi and Kaduna states of Northern Nigeria. The thesis explores the integrative non-violence interreligious approach to informal intermediary peacemaking by IMC and CMPM for social change. Significant differences are found in their activities in dealing with violent conflicts, using new methods and strategic plans of action referred to as the voluntary intermediary conflict solution that are practically justifiable via facilitated interfaith dialogues, mediations and negotiations. The thesis focuses on the direct intervention of the two NGOs selected in analyzing their role perception and cooperation in the areas they served between 1999 and 2012. Critical to the goal of this research is the discovery and descriptive analysis of how NGOs manage ethno-religious conflicts as perceived by the local population and why strategies employed are effective. Lederach’s Conflict Transformation and Peacebuilding theory (1997) suited the research and was used as the theoretical framework for the analysis of active engagement of NGOs in ethno-religious conflict management in Northern Nigeria. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, focus group interviews and documentary sources of the qualitative research methodology. Thus, face-to-face interviews were used for collecting data from the NGO officials, community/religious leaders as well as focus group discussions on various parameters. A thematic analysis of categories and themes was done to analyze, describe and interpret indicators in the analytical framework. The results of the study reveal that, the NGOs’ strategies have persuaded cooperative ethno-religious conflict management which enjoy acceptability on mutual interest and integrative outcomes. The thesis indicates that NGOs are strong role players in responding to complex emergencies through effective peaceful means. The study found that NGOs ethno-religious conflict management in Northern Nigeria is effective, peaceful as well as preventive. NGOs strategies of action are non-violent, accommodative, integrative and non-partisan. The research also found that IMC and CMPM have made significant efforts in promoting peaceful co-existence and in inculcating the culture of sustainable peace among disputants by using religious scriptures and direct peace talk. This has led to the conclusion that the NGOs’ intermediary role in ethno-religious conflict management relates more to how the locals view the process and which method best brings disputants to peace talks and peacebuilding.

Book Synopsis Religion, Violence, and Local Power-Sharing in Nigeria by : Laura Thaut Vinson
Download or read book Religion, Violence, and Local Power-Sharing in Nigeria written by Laura Thaut Vinson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does religion become a fault line of communal violence in some pluralistic countries and not others? Under what conditions will religious identity - as opposed to other salient ethnic cleavages - become the spark that ignites communal violence? Contemporary world politics since 9/11 is increasingly marked by intra-state communal clashes in which religious identity is the main fault line. Yet, violence erupts only in some religiously pluralistic countries, and only in some parts of those countries. This study argues that prominent theories in the study of civil conflict cannot adequately account for the variation in subnational identity-based violence. Examining this variation in the context of Nigeria's pluralistic north-central region, this book finds support for a new theory of power-sharing. It finds that communities are less likely to fall prey to a divisive narrative of religious difference where local leaders informally agreed to abide by an inclusive, local government power-sharing arrangement.

Violence in Nigeria is the most comprehensive study of religious violence and aggression in Nigeria, notably its causes, consequences, and the options for conflict resolution. After an analysis of the links between religionand politics, the book elaborates on all the major cases of violence in the 1980s and 90s, including the Maitatsine, Kano, Bauchi, Kaduna, and Katsina riots.

A product of extensive primary research, Violence in Nigeria makes a contribution to contemporary social and political history that no previous study has attempted, and it is written to appeal to specialists and non-specialists alike. Toyin Falola is the Jacob and Frances Sanger Mossiker Chair in the Humanities and University Distinguished Teaching Professor at the University of Texas at Austin. He is the author or editor of over a dozen books dealing with the history of Nigeria, its people, their religion and politics.
