Описание: This book emanated from the research outputs of different authors whose diverse academic traditions and wide geographic spread play a major role in enriching its contents. The volume is mainly a compilation on smallholder farmers and their practices. The book also highlights the challenges, which that small farmers frequently encounter, and the opportunities or prospects, which abound in their farming operations. Compartmentalised into three major sections, this 11-chapter volume provides an account of thought-provoking scenarios and narratives, which are rich and well- suited for policy development and praxis. The book, therefore, compels policymakers to see opportunities in every challenge associated with smallholder agriculture rather than see challenges in every opportunity therein. While some of the chapters present the results of field experimentations that highlight the impacts of certain geographic features and fertilizer use on root tuber cultivars production, some explore the effect of climate change on smallholder farming practices and how small farmers counteract the vagaries of weather conditions, which might impede their livelihoods. Nonetheless, most of the chapters largely rely on sociological methodologies to identify pertinent issues affecting the smallholder agriculture. While some of the issues underscore the advocacy for organic farming and its associated benefits or opportunities, others emphasize the uniqueness of certain agro-ecological farming systems and the opportunities, which they might offer resource-poor, smallholder farmers. A number of the chapters specifically provide some historical perspectives on the political economy of smallholder agriculture and identify the motivating and demotivating factors influencing young farmers affection for farming while some accentuate the pertinent role of research in determining small farmers response to the adoption of improved biotechnology in achieving food security. In the context of this book, there is a convergence in the findings and viewpoints of the authors in many places regarding topical issues on environmental sustainability, mitigation of climate change, ethics of the agri-food systems and agricultural policy.
Описание: Although democracy is becoming the prevalent and acceptable form of governance in such Sub-Saharan African countries as Nigeria, there is need to understand the domestic dynamics under which electoral competition influences the quality of leadership and national development. The major purpose of the book is to explore and explain the circumstances under which elections play crucial roles in the job performance of elected political elites and its effects on the development of Nigeria. There are obvious linkages between the basic political values of a democratic state and the leadership performances of elected officials, as well as its national development. The effects of the interactions of unethical political behaviour and sluggish improvements of the already poor national development are evident in Nigeria. In comparison with other African and Asian countries, Nigeria at its independence, had dynamic public institutions, competent professionals, and a vibrant civil society; and was considered the "phoenix of African hopes"1. Contrary to expectations, Nigeria has remained a nation-state, which by all democratic and leadership criteria, performs poorly in comparison with similar nation-states in Sub-Sahara Africa. Although the colonial legacies constitute part of Nigeria's political and developmental problems, it still remains unfortunate that, unlike Malaysia, Indonesia, and India with similar legacies, Nigeria has been unable to formulate policies that promote national integration and effective leadership. The problem of economic underdevelopment in Nigeria is, therefore, more complex than the effects of such exogenous factors as colonialism. Obviously, the authoritarian military regimes, which interrupted elected democratic regimes through coups d' tat, have impeded the political development processes. Even the so-called democratic regimes have been simply electoral dictatorships that combined regular elections with a number of democratic deficits; such as corruption, poor systems of checks and balances on the executive and ineffective legislative branch of government. These civilian regimes have used the conduct of multiparty elections to mask the prevalent authoritarian domination, plagued by election-rigging, abuse of power, and widespread corruption. The low levels of electoral competition in the political system of Nigeria have had adverse effects on the quality of leadership, as well as the development of the nation. Genuine electoral competitions create and guarantee accountability; serve as constraints on executive arbitrariness; and improve representation and participation. These in turn, create a balance between the politician who is supposed to supply good governance and the citizens who demand good governance.

Описание: Singapore society is increasingly becoming diverse. During the first few decades of nation building, policies were designed to homogenise aspects of Singaporean society while enshrining principles to allow restricted amounts of diversity. Fast forward to the present, and fifty years after independence, the number of areas where diversity is profoundly apparent remains copious, and its manifestations more varied.This book provides an updated account on the tensions posed by diversity in Singapore and how this is being managed, primarily by the state through policies and programmes but also by communities who attempt to negotiate these tensions. Such an enquiry is crucial especially at this juncture when the nation is finding ways to embrace the different forms of diversity brought about through external impetuses, as well as manage internal reactions from the various communities. The book chapters highlight important considerations if Singapore's diversity management strategies will hold promise for the future.
