Foreign policy decision-making in Nigeria
"Using a decision-making system approach, this book presents many new facts about Nigeria's foreign policy dynamics and outputs through many governmental eras. It shows the Balewa Government as a period during which the Office of the Prime Minister played a dominant role in foreign policy formulation, while the Ministry of External Affairs clearly played a secondary role in this respect. This reality was a direct result of the nature of sociopolitical cleavages and forces, and the functioning of the federal system of government during that period. The succeeding Ironsi Governemnt was too brief and preoccupied with domestic crises to make significant impacts in the foreign policy arena."--Jacket
