Illumination: Essays on Democracy, Culture, Peace and Social Development in Nigeria - Paperback

by Udenta O. Udenta (Author)

Illumination. Essays on Democracy, Culture, Peace and Social Development in Nigeria is a fascinating collection of essays on the democratic process, peace practice, cultural consciousness and social development in Nigeria. In the first of a 4-volume collection of essays, the author argues that Nigeria's accelerated social progress and political and economic transformation will be best served by the intellect, vision, labour and commitment of her enlighteners; that is, the men and women who possess the gift of social epiphany in abundance, and who can successfully bridge the distance between the "ideas in the margin" and the operation of the statecraft.

Illumination. Essays on Democracy, Culture, Peace and Social Development in Nigeria is an illuminating work that will challenge the consciousness of the leaders and the led in the direction of critical social practice as well as help to lay the foundation for a full interrogation of the norms and content of Nigeria's democratic transformation.
