Abumere, Frank Aragbonfoh.

Ideal and non-ideal theory of the postcolonial African state[electronic resource] /by Frank Aragbonfoh Abumere. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2025. - xiii, 156 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1: Introduction -- 2: Theorising about the Basic Structure of the Postcolonial African State -- 3: Liberalism, Communitarianism and the Middle of the Road -- 4: The Condition of Minorities and Minority Rights -- 5: Why Identity Matters in the Theorisation about the Postcolonial African State -- 6: The Neo-colony and the Post-colony -- 7: The Scope and Contents of the Basic Structure of the Postcolonial African State -- 8: Conclusion.

The fundamental question asked in this book is: what is the basic structure of the postcolonial African state? Taking the postcolonial African state as it is and as it ought to be, Frank Abumere defines the basic structure of the postcolonial African state as how the scope and contents of the rights and obligations that govern the vertical and horizontal relationships within the postcolonial African state are determined. In his conception of the basic structure of the postcolonial African state, on the one hand, vertical relationship is the relationship between the state and its citizens and residents, what the state owes to its citizens and residents, and what they owe to the state. On the other hand, horizontal relationships are the relationships among citizens (and residents) and what they owe to one another. Frank Aragbonfoh Abumere is a philosopher and political scientist, and currently a visiting Assistant Professor at Clark Atlanta University, USA.
