The Pan-African Nation: Oil and the Spectacle of Culture in Nigeria
When Nigeria hosted the Second World Black and African Festival of Art and Culture (FESTAC) in 1977, it celebrated a global vision of black nationhood and citizenship animated by the exuberance of its recent oil boom. Andrew Apter's The Pan-African Nation tells the full story of this cultural extravaganza, from Nigeria's spectacular rebirth as a rapidly developing petro-state to its dramatic demise when the boom went bust. According to Apter, FES…
Flux et Lieu: Transnationalisme / Quatre cas
Flow and Place: Transnationalism in Four Cases
Flows and places(1)--these are the minimal objects of transnationalism. Flows unite the twin phenomena of transnationalism and globalization, but place separates them. Flows are the informational and interactional links among sets of individuals and institutions. What marks the new era of globalization and transnationalism is not these flows as such and the processes they produce, but their speed and volume at increased pace and scale that resist…

The Biase today face social and economic pressures that seriously strai…

The New Nigeria
Debates about constitutional, ethnic, and religious questions are the substance out of which a nation is built. In Nigeria the policy of creating states has allowed these debates to contribute to creating a sense of inclusive pluralist nationalism. Recently, however, the state has abandoned its role as national arbiter and these issues have become fault-lines in a winner-take-all struggle over power. Debates that build the nation have been abando…

Economic Development and Economic Change: The Case of East African Cattle [and Comments and Replies]
Exploring anew the old question of why East African pastoral peoples tend to be conservative, this paper suggests that a de-Westernized cross-cultural application of economic theory, both statics and dynamics, coupled with transaction theory, (social exchange), reveals a distinction between economic development, the exponential growth of a specific economy, and economic change, a shift from one specific kind of economy to another. Economic develo…
