| Title | Globalisation and the state: implications for the state of human rights in Africa | |
| Creator | Basiru, Adeniyi S. | |
| Description | This article interrogates, in theoretical cum descriptive fashion, the linkage(s) between neo-liberal globalisation, the state, and the state of human rights, using sub-Sahara Africa as a research backdrop. Drawing majorly from secondary data, it found out that the post-colonial states in Africa have been at the mercies of this technologically driven post- cold war phenomenon. It argues that globalisation has incapacitated African states and thus unable to safeguard and protect the human rights of their citizens The article recommended that the state, the epicentre of the socio-economic space in Africa, needs to be reconstituted via an autochthonous process. | |
