Description

Colonialism and Development is an engaging and penetrating analysis of the role of colonialism in Africa’s economic and social transformation, as well as the legacy of colonialism in the post-colonial structures of the continent. Focusing on Nigeria, Professor Felix Ekechi reveals the new and transformative changes that Igbo and Nigerian societies endured due to British colonialism. Through a thoughtful interpretation of colonials and oral sources, Ekechi masterfully highlights local agencies and
voices that present these encounters in a new light.
