New Publication: THE OXFORD HANDBOOK OF NIGERIAN HISTORY
Toyin Falola
The Oxford Handbook of Nigerian History
Toyin Falola and Matthew Heaton
Oxford Handbooks
- Thirty-six accessible overviews covering the history of Nigeria, from prehistorical times to the 21st century
- Decenters the colonial era, placing greater emphasis on pre-colonial and post-independence histories
- Cutting edge interpretations and analysis of key themes from highly respected scholars in a single, forward-facing volume
The Oxford Handbook of Nigerian History provides a comprehensive history of Africa's most populous and most rapidly developing country. Rather than centering the rise of the nation-state, the Handbook reads the narrative of national politics alongside deeper histories of political and social organization, as well as in relation to competing influences on modern identity formation and inter-group relationships, such as ethnic and religious communities, economic partnerships, and immigrant and diasporic cultures.
