Description and Table of Contents
Description
This study explores the concept of sovereignty in the postmodern world and its interrelationship to problems and issues facing the Third World. Specifically, it examines the theoretical and practical dimensions of sovereignty in the current era, such as its changing dimensions and possible disintegration. These issues are placed into a real-world context by examining their relationships to political and economic development in the Third World. The book should be of interest for all those in departments of politics (courses in political economy, African politics, political theory and government), economics, international relations, African studies and Third-World studies.
