This book was released on 2004-08-04 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Development in Nigeria-A Post-SAP Period Pattern traces the roots of urban development problems in Nigeria to socio-economic development approaches in the country dating back to events in the pre-colonial era. Fundamentally, national economic crisis has shaped such approaches since independence. Urban development problems are realistically seen in this work to involve a multi-dimensional process: the journey of the primitive man to modernity is seen to characterize the fundamental transformational aspects of development as a multifaceted process; the natural urban population growth, the steady shift from rural to urban areas, the social and economic changes happening over a period of time and the national macroeconomic planning and management under which they are realized. These considerations have influenced, at all time, the methods of studying the various aspects of this work, thus culminating in looking at city development in Nigeria, in a period expected to witness increased private sector participation in national economic development in the country. The Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP), in itself, prepared the country for the entrenchment of economic reform programmes and projects guided by free market principles. It has placed strong demands for a new urban development pattern based on more efficient utilization and management of existing resources. Urban growth and development must be re-enacted from the inside of the city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If extinctions are part of nature’s course, then why does it matter that so many species are becoming extinct now? Over the long course of man’s occupance on Earth has been seemingly characterised by its dependence on nature and the ecology which has overtime greatly influenced homeostatic regulation – i.e. balance of nature, where clearly, nature's capacity to support man’s existence has plummeted with the release of obnoxious chemicals into the environment. It is pertinent to note that all species, while evolving and adapting to the demands of their habitats or modernization exigencies, changes dramatically, subjecting the ecologies, which happen to be the fabric of life to the dynamic swirl of physical forces and of rapid decline of species diversity. If we continue to lose large and vital portions of the natural world to extinction of species and other criticalities, we humans would be able to cope, but plants and animals may not be able to adapt to most of these changes, and as a result may die and become extinct, resulting in a break in food chain. A considerable attempt has been made through this book to explicitly cover these emerging concerns or topics, in a consolidated form which will provide effective understanding of environmental problems currently being faced in different world regions and perhaps not just to give the reader a fair knowledge about the huge role the ecology has in the survival of species and existence of man, but to provide the extent to which the state of dynamic equilibrium from nature will deprive the generations yet unborn the right to clean and healthy environment and harmony with nature.
Book Synopsis Infrastructure Development in Nigeria by : Michael O. Onolememen
Download or read book Infrastructure Development in Nigeria written by Michael O. Onolememen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-22 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the politics and economics of infrastructure development in Nigeria from Independence in 1960 up to 2015, and the role of good governance in promoting the socioeconomic wellbeing of citizens. Arguing for the need for transformational leadership in infrastructure development, the chapters examine policy issues and survey the various administrative, economic, and social-political reforms that have impacted infrastructure development in Nigeria. The author also discusses current national development plans and Vision 20:2020; challenges to infrastructure development, including corruption; and the future potential of a strong infrastructure network for the economy and citizens. Drawing upon his experience within government departments, as well as existing models of leadership and governance, the author explores the role of infrastructure development in promoting the wellbeing and growth of Nigeria. Combining theory with practical examples of good governance, this book will be of interest for students and researchers of political science and infrastructure development in Africa.
Book Synopsis Our Continent, Our Future by : P. Thandika Mkandawire
Download or read book Our Continent, Our Future written by P. Thandika Mkandawire and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Continent, Our Future presents the emerging African perspective on this complex issue. The authors use as background their own extensive experience and a collection of 30 individual studies, 25 of which were from African economists, to summarize this African perspective and articulate a path for the future. They underscore the need to be sensitive to each country's unique history and current condition. They argue for a broader policy agenda and for a much more active role for the state within what is largely a market economy. Finally, they stress that Africa must, and can, compete in an increasingly globalized world and, perhaps most importantly, that Africans must assume the leading role in defining the continent's development agenda.

Download or read book The Changing Forms of Identity Politics in Nigeria Under Economic Adjustment written by Cyril I. Obi and published by Nordic Africa Institute. This book was released on 2001 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Niger delta region of Nigeria which is at the heart of the country's oil industry, has a long history of struggles for self-determination dating back to the early years of the 20[superscript th] century. In the 1980s and 1990s, these struggles, unfolding as they did within the context of military authoritarianism and structural adjustment, took the form of widespread agitation for greater control by local communities of the revenues accruing to the Nigerian state from exploration and extraction of oil." "This study attempts to capture the transformations in ethnic minority identity politics in the oil-producing areas of the Niger delta. In doing this, attention is simultaneously drawn to the factors informing the shift from peaceful agitation to violent protest as well as the dynamic of decay and renewal in the various ethnic minority movements that are active in the delta. It is suggested that part of the solution to the crisis in the delta will involve not only a thorough-going restructuring of the Nigerian state but also the re-orientation of the mode of operation of the giant oil multinationals in order to make them both more sensitive and accountable to the local communities."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Rural Development by : Paola de Salvo
Download or read book Rural Development written by Paola de Salvo and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-02-02 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book brings together a series of contributions with a common goal of reflecting the links between economic development and rural development. The scenario is dotted not only with old and new wounds but also with innovative strategies in an attempt to overcome existing delays. The chapters of the book are composed of scenarios full of case studies. The plans to be adopted to help the countries that have lagged behind fueled an intense debate since the obstacles to development, as evidenced by the extensive scientific literature available, now appeared to be the realities present in the socio-economic structures of a large number of villages. Although the data available are still few, it is assumed that the Covid-19 pandemic will make a landscape already full of criticalities even more fragile.
