Afro-Marxist Regimes
The Institutional Development of Political Science in Nigeria
Political science in Nigeria has developed within contextual parameters provided by (a) the multinational character of political science, with particular reference to the hegemonic role of the US in its global diffusion; (b) the statist structure of Nigeria's political economy; and (c) the logic of colonial nationalism. In explaining the character of Nigerian political science within these historically determined contexts, the author proceeds wit…
Federalism, The Consociational State, and Ethnic Conflict in Nigeria
From a theoretical perspective which views constitutions and constitutional arrangements as forms of political technology, this article argues that Nigerian federalism is based on a theory of the rights of ethnic groups to autonomous coexistence within the nation. This theory also provided a basis for the development and utilization of consociational conflict-regulating mechanisms, some of which gave rise to affirmative action policies to consoli…
The Political Economy of Sweden's Development Policy in Africa
This article argues that the basic model of Sweden's development policy in Africa represents an attempt to internationalize her own developmental experience. The philosophical underpinnings of that experience are found to be the ideas of integration, solidarity and equality. There is a latent tension between the idea of integration, which implies partial incremental reforms, and that of solidarity, which would presuppose a more radical approach t…

Some African Theorists of Culture and Modernization
How should one relate culture to the modernization process in Africa? This paper will attempt to indicate how one might go about answering this important question, probably raising more questions in the process than providing substantive answers. A point of departure, in doing so, is to offer a critical exposition of the uses to which certain African political thinkers, principally Frantz Fanon and Amilcar Cabral, have put the culture concept. Th…

Language and Politics
L. Adèle Jinadu - Langue et politique : sur les bases culturelles du colonialisme. Aux yeux de F. Fanon, parler la langue du colonisateur c'était accepter, voire assumer, sa culture. Cette affirmation présuppose une assimilation totale de la langue à la culture, qui paraît exagérée même si, effectivement, la politique linguistique coloniale comporte toujours un aspect d'assimilationnisme autoritaire. Le problème ne change que partiellement après …
Ideology, Political Religion, and Modernization
My purpose in doing this paper is two-fold. First, I will offer a textual analytical critique of Apter's (1964, 1965, 1968) theoretical speculations on the links between ideology and political religion on the one hand and ideology and modernization on the other. In doing so, I shall put forward my own views concerning the role of ideology in the modernization process. Second, I will examine the uses of ideology in Tanzania in the light of my own …
Some Aspects of the Political Philosophy of Frantz Fanon
Political philosophy is concerned with the ends and purposes of government. It involves a conception of “the good life” and is primarily, though perhaps not exclusively, concerned with human beings. A conception of the good life presumably implies a view of how to attain that end. In this view, then, political philosophy is also concerned with the question of means, or how is the good life to he won and secured for the members of a particular com…
South West Africa
The mandate system may be toothless but it is not bootless. --Parker T. Moon (Imperialism and World Politics) Students of comparative politics and international relations generally admit that one of the more outstanding political developments of the post-World War II era has been what Hans J. Morgenthau calls “the Colonial Revolution”--the granting of independence to colonial territories and dependencies in Asia and Africa. “What seemed to be alm…
