  • Vigilante Groups and Policing in a Democratizing Nigeria: Navigating the Context and Issues
    Brazilian Journal of African Studies | Porto Alegre | v. 4, n. 8, Jul./Dec. 2019 | p. 179-199 179 VIGILANTE GROUPS AND POLICING IN A DEMOCRATIZING NIGERIA: NAVIGATING THE CONTEXT AND ISSUES Adeniyi S. Basiru1 Olusesan A. Osunkoya2 Introduction Before the advent of colonialism in Nigeria, the various indigenous communities, like elsewhere in Africa, had evolved various self-help institu- tions (vigilante groups in modern sense) for maintaining public order. But, with the emergence of the colonial state and all its coercive paraphernalia, these traditional institutions of public order management, that had for cen- turies served the people, were relegated to the background, as the modern police force, the precursor of the present day Nigerian Police, under the direction of the colonial authorities, became the primus inter pares, in the internal security architecture of the colony (Ahire, 1991, 18). With this deve- lopment, the communal/collectivist-oriented frameworks of policing that had for centuries been part of people’s social existence now constituted the informal models of policing rendering subsidiary roles. For decades, this was the arrangement for policing the vast Nigerian territory. Although, there were documented cases of police re-organizations, by the colonial authorities, in Lagos, in 1930 and 1954 (Akuul, 2011, 18), these, however, neither reversed the western-dominated order of policing nor re-organized the indigenous informal models of policing. Put differently, the indigenous police institutions, in differently parts of the country, continued to play subsidiary roles in public order management. Instructively, at inde- pendence, the colonial arrangement rather than being transformed to reflect 1 Department of Political Science, University of Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria.

  • Synodality” – Results and Challenges of the Theological Dialogue Between the Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church
    “SYNODALITY” – RESULTS AND CHALLENGES OF THE THEOLOGICAL DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE ORTHODOX CHURCH AND THE CATHOLIC CHURCH Archbishop Job of Telmessos I. The results of the Joint International Commission for the Theological Dialogue between the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church The Joint International Commission for the Theological Dialogue between the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church has been focusing on the topic of “Primacy and Synodality” over the last twelve years. This is not surprising, since the issue of the exercise of papal primacy has been an object of disagreement between Orthodox and Catholics over a millennium. The Orthodox contribution has been to point out that primacy and synodality are both inseparable: there cannot be a gathering (synodos) without a president (protos), and no one cannot be first (protos) if there is no gathering (synodos). As the Metropolitan of Pergamon, John Zizioulas, pointed out: “The logic of synodality leads to primacy”, since “synods without primates never existed in the Orthodox Church, and this indicates clearly that if synodality is an ecclesiological, that is, dogmatical, necessity so must primacy [be]”1. The Ravenna Document (2007) The document of the Joint International Commission for the Theological Dialogue between the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church, referred as the “Ravenna Document” (2007), speaks of synodality and conciliarity as synonyms, “as signifying that each member of the Body of Christ, by virtue of baptism, has his or her place and proper responsibility in eucharistic koinonia (communio in Latin)”. It then affirms that “conciliarity reflects the Trinitarian mystery and finds therein its ultimate foundation”2 and from there, considers that “the Eucharist manifests the Trinitarian koinônia actualized in the faithful as an organic unity of several members each of whom has a charism, a service or a proper ministry, necessary in their variety and diversity for the edification of all in the one ecclesial Body of Christ”3.

  • Representation and Governance.Pdf
    Summary What is it that makes the U.S. Congress unique and distinctive among the world's legislatures? What, in other words, has prevented our national legislature from being dominated or swallowed up by the executive as so often has happened elsewhere? The answer I provide gives prominence to the division- and specialization-of-labor of the congressional committee system. Strong committees with proprietary rights to policy jurisdictions; a membership which can pursue political careers inside the legislature relatively independent of the whims or wishes of others (for example, Speakers or Presidents); and a committee system that embodies the functional differentiation of legislative activity (authorization, appropriation, revenue-raising, budgeting, and procedural matters) all serve to insulate the legislature from political predators in general, and the executive branch in particular. A stunning by-product of these arrangements is that the legislature is able to attract and retain competent, ambitious politicians to pursue political careers there. The second part of this paper examines the spate of reforms in the House of the 1970s — what I term a "representational revolt." I am specifically interested in the degree to which these reforms have altered the operation of the committee system and the political incentives which that system provides. I suggest that reforms which seek to enhance the legislature's representative character (as I believe is true of many recent reforms) risk attenuating the division-of-labor that has served the legislature so well during this century. In short, in thinking about reform I suggest there is a "great legislative tradeoff" — between representativeness and the maintainence of an independent capacity to contribute to governing.

  • United States Hostility to the International Criminal Court: It’S All About the Security Council
    MFK-Mendip Job ID: 10505BK-0083-4 4 - 701 Rev: 08-09-2004 PAGE: 1 TIME: 14:36 SIZE: 61,11 Area: JNLS OP: AB ᭧ EJIL 2004 ............................................................................................. United States Hostility to the International Criminal Court: It’s All About the Security Council William A. Schabas* Abstract The now abundant literature on the hostility of the United States towards the International Criminal Court speaks to the litany of criticisms invoked by Washington, from the vulnerability of American nationals to prosecution to such issues as the lack of trial by jury. But these so-called shortcomings are also features of the international tribunals to which the United States has accorded enthusiastic support, from Nuremberg and Tokyo to the more recent generation. Had the 1994 draft of the International Law Commission remained more or less intact, it is likely that today the United States would be a keen supporter of the Court. The distinctions between the 1994 draft and the final version of the Rome Statute unlock the mystery of United States opposition. At the heart of the changes during the four-year drafting process is the relationship between the Court and Security Council. The ILC had conceived of what was in effect a permanent ad hoc tribunal, perfectly subordinate to the Security Council and interlocked with the Charter of the United Nations. But the drafters adjusted this conception, with the result that the Court has significant independence from the Security Council, notably with respect to the

  • Prime Minister and the Lok Sabha: by Virtue of Being the Leader of the Majority Party, the Prime Minister Functions As the Leader of the Lok Sabha As Well
    POLITICAL SCIENCE 1 MOOC ON Constitutional Govt. & Democracy in India MODULE-18 The Prime Minister ACADEMIC SCRIPT In England, the Prime Minister is the keystone of Cabinet arch. Infact the position of the Prime Minister has been described by Lord Morley as primus inter pares i.e., ‘first among equals’. In theory, all Ministers or members of the Cabinet have an equal position, all being advisors of the Crown, and all being responsible to Parliament in the same manner. Nevertheless, has a pre eminence, by convention and usage. Just like in England, in India too, Art 74(1) of our Constitution expressly states that the Prime Minister shall be at the head of the Council of Ministers. Almost all the powers enjoyed by the British Prime Minister through the conventions are in as much in general applicable to the Indian Prime Minister as well. The power of advising the President as regards the appointment of the other Ministers is, thus, embodied in POLITICAL SCIENCE 2 Article 75(1). As to the function of acting as the channel of communication between the President and the Council of Ministers, Art.78 provides—it shall be the duty of the Prime Minister to communicate to the President all decisions of the affairs of the Union and proposals for legislation. The written provisions of our Constitution in this regard are extremely sketchy. They do not cover the area of entire authority that the Prime Minister has to exercise. Moreover, like in England, our Prime Minister is expected to play the role of the efficient executive in view of the paramount fact that the President constitutes the dignified part of the Union Executive.

  • The Politicisation of Policing in Democratic Nigeria
    [Ibadan Journal of Sociology, Jun., 2019, 9 ] 125 [© 2014-2019 Ibadan Journal of Sociology] The Politicisation of Policing in Democratic Nigeria Adeniyi S. Basiru1 Department of Political Science, University of Lagos, Akoka-Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria Franc Ter Abagen2 Department of Political Science, Benue State University, Makurdi, Nigeria Mashud L.A Salawu3 Department of International Relations, Southwestern University Nigeria, Okun-Owa, Nigeria Abstract In the security architecture of modern democratic states, the police play pivotal roles, most especially, in the sphere public order management. In the performance of this important role, the police must be professional, apolitical and above all, loyal to the Constitution of the State. However, while the foregoing ideals are internalised by the police in liberal democracies, the reverse appears to be the case in Africa and other peripheral regions where the police seem more political than professional. It is against this background that this article, drawing on evidence from secondary sources, examines the implications of politicisation of policing for democratic consolidation in democratic Nigeria. It notes that politicisation of policing in the country has its undercurrents in the over- centralized Nigerian state and the attendant struggles that often characterise the struggles to capture it by different factions of the ruling elites. It concludes that as long as the over-centralised state structure which centralises public policing in Nigeria endures, public order management in Nigeria,

ROSENBLUM* The voluminous literature on civil society ignores political parties. Political theorists and social scientists talk about religious associations, social movements and advocacy groups, book clubs and athletic teams, and unions and membership groups like the Rotary Club and Jaycees. They embrace voluntary associations formed for every conceivable purpose, but not political parties., Indeed, normative democratic theory generally ignores parties or takes them up in the limited context of egalitarian arguments for campaign finance reform.2 We may reasonably expect that civil society theory, concerned as it is with associations that mediate between the individual or family and state, would focus on parties. The fact that they are rarely mentioned is a remarkable lacuna.

  • 2020 Day – 46 POLITY
    MAD- 2020 Day – 46 POLITY To Watch the Video Click Here: https://youtu.be/yitoc-2sitM Question: Examine the position of PM and Council of Ministers in Parliamentary system of government. Discuss how centralization of power in the office of PMO impacts the working of this system. Answer: The Parliamentary system of government is based on interdependence and routine responsibility of the executive vis a vis the legislature. The Constitution through articles 74 and 78 makes Council of Ministers headed by the Prime Minister the real executive of the system. The relationship between the PM and Council of Ministers is seen as being ‘primus inter pares.’ The President is obliged to act according to the advice of the Council of Ministers which is responsible in the real sense of the term, not to the President but to the Lok Sabha. The PM is the leader of the majority party in Lok Sabha, thus playing a crucial role in shaping the business and policies in the legislature. The real executive and legislature are not visualized as competing centres of power but as inseparable partners or co-partner in the business of Government. Parliament is a large body and does not and cannot govern. The Council of Ministers is the 'grand executive committee' of Parliament charged with the responsibility of governance on behalf of the parent body. At the same time, from among the Council of Ministers, it is the Cabinet which plays a crucial role in decision making. The head of every Government Department is a Minister and Parliament exercises control over the Department through the Minister.
