内容説明
"Crippled Giant is an excellent summary of Nigerian political history...The work is notable for even-handed analysis of both history and theory. The result is an introduction of the highest quality to the study of Nigerian politics." -African Studies Review "Osaghae, an academic with a refreshingly neutral and understated approach to the maddening follies of his government, has produced a highly readable overview of Nigeria's politics, economy, and foreign relations. Rich in detail, his account is also a useful tour of earlier thematic treatments of the subject." -Foreign Affairs "...well-written, coherent narrative and thoughtful, balanced analysis of Nigeria's political history from 1960 to 1996."-A. H. M. Kirk-Greene, St. Antony's College, Oxford Eghosa Osaghae's study leads him to the conclusion that Nigeria's problems are not of recent making but can be traced to structural impediments from colonial times.

内容説明
Eghosa E. Osaghae surveys Nigerian politics since the country's independence in 1960, probing the factors that have kept it from realizing its enormous economic potential. Osaghae links characteristics of Nigeria's political culture and economic development to its colonial origin and current status as a neo-colonial formation. Post-independence political developments are examined chronologically from the First Republic (1960-1966) to the Abacha regime (1993 -- ). Special attention is paid to the political situation of the late 1980s and 1990s, when the country went into a steep decline. He concludes that Nigeria's problems are not of recent making but can be traced to structural impediments from colonial times.
