Produktbeschreibung
This book examines the democracy-development disjuncture in Nigeria. Anchored in a political economy framework, and thematic approach, the book explains this contradiction with the innovative conceptualisation of the "unknown state"; synthesized from dysfunctional state concepts such as the failed State, collapsed State, virtual State, shadow state, rotten State, and fragile State; and consolidated with terminologies such as "absentee father" "ghost worker", "unknown gunmen", "unknown soldier", and "unknown government".
