More importantly, he argues that the impact of these policies cannot be fully understood without looking closely at the intersection of domestic and external politics dictating the direction of higher education development as a vehicle for nation-building in Nigeria?s pluralistic society. 410 0$aAfrica: missing voices series 606 $aEducation, Higher$xHistory$y20th century$zNigeria 606 $aHigher education and state$xPolitical aspects$zNigeria 606 $aEducation, Higher$zNigeria 606 $aNation-building$zNigeria 606 $aEconomic development$zNigeria 607 $aNigeria$xUniversity$y1948-2000 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xHistory 615 0$aHigher education and state$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aEducation, Higher 615 0$aNation-building 615 0$aEconomic development 676 $a378.6690904 700 $aAnyanwu$b Ogechi Emmanuel$0968026 702 $aAnyanwu$b Ogechi E$4oth 801 0$bPQKB 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141816803321 996 $aThe Politics of Access$92198509 997 $aUNINA
