Girls’ Education, Social Constraints and State Policies in Northern Ghana, 1909–1960
This article examines the complex socio-political factors that hindered the growth of girls’ education in northern Ghana during the colonial and early postcolonial periods.

We demonstrate that colonial policies and local customs combined to create barriers…

Using archival data, missionary records and oral interviews…

Essentially, the problem of the decline of interest in history has three parts to it: causes, conditions and co…

The adoption of constitutional rule in Ghana in 1992 rapidly diminished state power and weakened its capacity to administer just…
