This book was released on 2004-03 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past twenty years, cocoa production in Nigeria has been on a downward spiral. From its Olympian heights as the second largest producer of cocoa in the world with an annual average output of about 250,000 metric tons in the early 1970s, Nigeria witnessed a precipitous decline in production to less than half its peak tonnage during this two-decade period. In consequence the country ceased to be a major cocoa producer in the world markets. Growth, Crisis and Transformation in the Cocoa Farming Economy of Southwestern Nigeria, 1900-2000 is a systematic account of the decline of cocoa production in Nigeria. It goes beyond the conventional scholarship by looking at the intersection of government policies and local environmental and ecological factors and the consequential impact on the dwindling of cocoa production. Using archival and oral sources, the book analyzes the rise and development of cocoa farming in southwest Nigeria against the extreme disruption of Yorubaland in the 19th century. The book places the emergence of cocoa farming, the family work force and the laborers in the context of the overall colonial economy of the early 20th century. It analyzes the outbreak and spread of cocoa diseases, notably, black pod and swollen shoot and the migration of farmers into new regions, Ife and Ondo to the east. Examined also are the roles played by the marketing boards, which the British established, ostensibly to provide predictability and security to the farmers, but also revenue to the colonial regime and then the regional governments of Nigeria. The book also surveys the state of the cocoa industry in the postcolonial period. It analyzes the impact of the economic policies of the immediate postcolonial governments on the industry and evaluates the impact of the oil boom that transformed Nigeria and Nigerian agriculture from the 1970s.

Book Synopsis Violence in African Elections by : Mimmi Söderberg Kovacs
Download or read book Violence in African Elections written by Mimmi Söderberg Kovacs and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2018-04-15 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiparty elections have become the bellwether by which all democracies are judged, and the spread of these systems across Africa has been widely hailed as a sign of the continent’s progress towards stability and prosperity. But such elections bring their own challenges, particularly the often intense internecine violence following disputed results. While the consequences of such violence can be profound, undermining the legitimacy of the democratic process and in some cases plunging countries into civil war or renewed dictatorship, little is known about the causes. By mapping, analysing and comparing instances of election violence in different localities across Africa – including Kenya, Ivory Coast and Uganda – this collection of detailed case studies sheds light on the underlying dynamics and sub-national causes behind electoral conflicts, revealing them to be the result of a complex interplay between democratisation and the older, patronage-based system of ‘Big Man’ politics. Essential for scholars and policymakers across the social sciences and humanities interested in democratization, peace-keeping and peace studies, Violence in African Elections provides important insights into why some communities prove more prone to electoral violence than others, offering practical suggestions for preventing violence through improved electoral monitoring, voter education, and international assistance.

Download or read book Nigeria written by Richard Bourne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'If you want to understand Nigeria's history in one succinct go, this is a very good choice.' Noo Saro-Wiwa Known as the African Giant, Nigeria's story is complex and often contradictory. How, despite the ravages of colonialism, civil war, ongoing economic disappointment and most recently the Boko Haram insurgency, has the country managed to stay together for a hundred years? Why, despite an abundance of oil, mineral and agricultural wealth, have so many of its people remained in poverty? These are the key questions explored by Richard Bourne in this remarkable and wide-ranging account of Nigeria's history, from its creation in 1914 to the historic 2015 elections and beyond. Featuring a wealth of original research and interviews, this is an essential insight into the shaping of a country where, despite the seemingly dashed optimism that was raised at independence, there still remains hope 'the Nigeria project' may still succeed.
