This book focuses on the security implications for Nigeria of its relationships with its five immediate neighbours namely, Cameroun, Benin, Niger, Chad and Equatorial Guinea. Emphasis is placed on the need for an "integrative" approach to the management of sub-regional security in Africa, which is regarded to be qualitatively different from the orthodox approach of merely encouraging multilateral co-operation for the purpose of accomodating exclusive security interests of sovereign neighbouring states. The book provides a framework for understanding the structure of Nigeria's conflict relations with its contiguous neighbours in the past and for the management of their collective security needs in a post-cold war regional system.

Die Sammlung von neun Aufsätzen (und einer Bibliographie) befasst sich mit der Frage, welche Außenwirtschaftspolitik Nigeria betreiben sollte, um die ökonomische Krise zu überwinden. Die Autoren diskutieren die wirtschaftspolitische Ausrichtung der 1994 offiziell beendeten IWF- und Weltbank inspirierten Politikpakete, erörtern die Orientierung unter den nachfolgenden Militärregierungen und analysieren die Möglichkeiten unter der Zivilregierung Obasanjo seit 1999. Durch Vergleiche mit den Wirtschaftspolitiken Japans, Europas und Brasiliens versuchen die Autoren Aufschluss über einen Erfolg versprechenden nigerianischen Weg zu erhalten. (DÜI-Sbd)
