Book Description
Originally published in 1978 as part of the Urbanization in Developing Countries series, this is an interdisciplinary study of rapid urban growth in West Africa. Gugler and Flanagan first explore the history of the cities of the early West African empires and they draw on the work of social anthropologists and sociologists, as well as demographers, economists, geographers, historians, political scientists and social psychologists. They then describe the urban explosion that the region experienced after World War II. They explore the implications of widespread urban unemployment and underemployment, the housing crisis and the emergence of metropolitan areas such as Lagos. The literature on urbanization and social change in Black Africa in general, and West Africa in particular, expanded at a fast pace in the years preceding publication. This critical review of the disparate findings filled a gap in African Studies and threw light on the understanding of Third World urbanization.

Book Description
This volume features the works of scholar-practitioners who embrace critical pedagogy and critical research as praxis in qualitative research about education. The authors take an explicit stance toward social justice through education, and they use critical research as a vehicle toward that end. The chapters critically engage with topics such as researcher role and position in critical research; collaborative research models with teachers and students; exploring visual epistemology in schools and with students; critical science education and cosmopolitanism; and developing praxis within teacher preparation courses and teacher research. Contributors push the boundaries of scholarship by presenting nuanced theoretical discussions or critical and timely educational issues via innovative forms of representation (i.e., fiction, narratives, dialogues, rich descriptions, and visuals). This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education.

Book Description
The evolution of policy in education has been very important in determining the direction and the rate of its spread in Nigeria. As one moves from one area or era to another, weak policy or lack of policy has created unforeseen problems that have had long-lasting consequences that color how much and what type of education was deemed suitable for a milieu. A lack of understanding of the role of policy has been responsible for many failed interventions in education. This book traces the evolution of policy and attempts to show the correlation between clearly articulated policies and the suitability of the output of the system to respond to the needs of the society.

Book Description
Essay from the year 2021 in the subject Sociology - Work, Education, Organisation, grade: A2, Obafemi Awolowo University, language: English, abstract: In essence, this essay explored the subject of international students’ mobility with focus on how students' recruitment can be effectively managed. Studying abroad is an important life’s decision that involves moving from one’s home country to a foreign community for educational purposes. However, when associated with classic theories of international migrations, there appear to be a myriad of factors that could pre-dispose or influence a potential migrant – in the context of this essay – an international student from West Africa. Such factors have now been widely aligned with the decision to study abroad; the question of what country to select? which higher education institution to apply for? It has become highly necessary for governments and stakeholders in the education sector to consider more research into identifying various students' choices in relation to diverse nuances (such as political, economic, socio-cultural factors) within their home countries. This will in turn aid in market segmentation amongst various other international strategic marketing tools employed by higher education institutions in the top study destinations.
