Book Description
"Gulliver's Troubles offers the first comprehensive assessment of the post-Cold War foreign policy of Nigeria - one of Africa's most important states. Expert contributors, comprising academics and scholar-diplomats, analyse Nigeria's most vital domestic challenges and critical regional issues from historical and contemporary perspectives. Nigeria's relations with its neighbours and other significant states and regional and international bodies also come under scrutiny. The debates here, while multi-faceted, share the premise that an effective foreign policy must be built on a sound domestic base and democratic stability."--BOOK JACKET.

Corruption and Nigerian Foreign Policy (1999 – 2007)
Author: Jude Uddoh
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1504974050
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
Nigerias foreign policy has always been predicated on the national interest, which is reducible to the security and welfare of its citizens. Nigerias position in Africa, its teeming population and rich endowment of mineral resources including oil, all contributed to the notion of Nigerias manifest leadership in Africa and beyond. Through what became known as an Afrocentrist foreign policy, Nigeria championed the cause of liberating Africa from apartheid and colonial rule. Nigeria sent troops to peace missions in various conflict zones in Africa and other parts of the world and contributed financially and materially to the well-being of fellow African as well as Caribbean states. Nigeria thus earned for itself the image of a responsible and well-respected member of the international community.

Nigerian Foreign Policy 60 Years After Independence
Author: Usman A. Tar
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031068823
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 458
Book Description
This book covers critical issues in Nigeria’s external relations since 1960. As an independent nation, Nigeria has stood out as the most populous black country in the world and contributed immensely to the search for solutions to pressing international issues, notably in Africa affairs. Nigeria has also participated actively in global affairs and used the platform of international organisation to advance her national interests, cognisant also of its regional and global obligations and responsibilities. Contributors to this thought-provoking book make a strong case for Nigeria to press for a foreign policy that puts Nigerian people at the centre. One of the strong points also emanating from the contributors of this book is the imperative for Nigeria to address domestic challenges that continue to impinge on the country’s external image.

Nigeria
Author: John Campbell
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
ISBN: 1442221585
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
Nigeria, the United States’ most important strategic partner in West Africa, is in grave trouble. While Nigerians often claim they are masters of dancing on the brink without falling off, the disastrous administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, the radical Islamic insurrection Boko Haram, and escalating violence in the delta and the north may finally provide the impetus that pushes it into the abyss of state failure. In this thoroughly updated edition, John Campbellexplores Nigeria’s post-colonial history and presents a nuanced explanation of the events and conditions that have carried this complex, dynamic, and very troubled giant to the edge. Central to his analysis are the oil wealth, endemic corruption, and elite competition that have undermined Nigeria’s nascent democratic institutions and alienated an increasingly impoverished population. However, state failure is not inevitable, nor is it in the interest of the United States. Campbell provides concrete new policy options that would not only allow the United States to help Nigeria avoid state failure but also to play a positive role in Nigeria’s political, social, and economic development.
