- Description:
- This paper is an attempt to contribute to the debate on the role of students in political development and nation-building. Specifically, it is an analysis of the evolutionary and dynamic trends in the Nigerian student movement vis-a-vis the Nigerian state. It deals with the role that youth, and students in particular, could play in nation-building and political integration in a multiethnic, culturally heterogeneous, socially diversified and politically fragmented Nigerian state. The paper focuses on the role students should play in political mobilisation, especially during the current Nigerian transition programme and beyond.

- Description:
- Since 1980, the pace of economic and social change in Botswana has been rapid. One might expect this to be reflected in patterns of offending behaviour and court responses. This paper examines trends in certain types of criminal offence during this period, making use of police and prison reports and a smnmary of magistrates' court records in Gaborone. While there are clear rising trends for a nmnberof major offences and differences in sentencing patterns between them, the paper concludes by warning against making simple connections between these observations and structural changes such as the growth of urbanisation or of presumed urban income inequalities.
