While many recent collections have reheated the old paradigms - of the perils of federalism; corruption; ethnicity etc, our focus here is on encounter , that is, the nuance and complexity of how the state shapes society and vice-versa.Through this, wedepart from the standard state versus society approach that proves so limiting in explaining the African political landscape. 410 0$aAfrica Connects 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aEthnology$zAfrica 606 $aCulture 606 $aSociology 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aAfrica$xHistory 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aAfrican Culture 606 $aSociology 606 $aPolitical Science 606 $aAfrican History 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aAnthropology. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aAfrica$xHistory. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aAnthropology. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 615 24$aSociology. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aAfrican History. 676 $a966.905/4 701 $aAdebanwi$b Wale$01794030 701 $aObadare$b Ebenezer$01633726 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910952286503321 996 $aEncountering the Nigerian State$94334559 997 $aUNINA
