Introduction to Sociology of Development

About this book

This book represents a modest, albeit important attempt to introduce students to the basics of Sociology of Development, as one of the core areas of the study of Sociology that emphasises the "place of Third World Countries" and their varied problematiques of development. It is, therefore, a very important text and is recommended generally to students of social and management sciences Indeed, even advanced students of Sociology will find this book useful, as it addresses with clear illustrations some key development problems affecting Nigeria, viz. insecurity, poverty and corruption. Overall, this book is strongly recommended for all categories of social science students, as it provides a window to the general sociological issues of development. When looking through that small window, it would telescope the broader sub-field of Sociology of Development. – Professor Sulaiman KURA, Dept of Political Science, Usianu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, Nigeria
