Description

Explore the complex evolution of the post-colonial state in this academic study from Routledge. This book examines how the colonial nation-state functioned as a legal-bureaucratic-police structure and how this system impacted customary governance in former colonies. Following post-World War II independence, the transfer of state ownership to the colonized elite triggered intense battles between electoral politics and civil society for control of the state. The text analyzes how these new governments attempted to build legitimacy while facing pressure from customary governance practices seeking rehabilitation and decolonization. This volume provides a detailed look at the challenges of state-building amidst civil wars and social strife. It is an essential resource for students and professionals studying management, organizations, and society within the context of post-colonial transitions and political resistance.
