Adult Authority, Social Conflict, and Youth Survival Strategies in Post Civil War Liberia
‘Listen, Politics is not for Children:’ Adult Authority, Social Conflict, and Youth Survival Strategies in Post Civil War Liberia. DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Henryatta Louise Ballah Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Drs. Ousman Kobo, Advisor Antoinette Errante Ahmad Sikianga i Copyright by Henryatta Louise Ballah 2012 ii Abstract This dissertation explores the historical causes of the Liberian civil war (1989- 2003), with a keen attention to the history of Liberian youth, since the beginning of the Republic in 1847. I carefully analyzed youth engagements in social and political change throughout the country’s history, including the ways by which the civil war impacted the youth and inspired them to create new social and economic spaces for themselves. As will be demonstrated in various chapters, despite their marginalization by the state, the youth have played a crucial role in the quest for democratization in the country, especially since the 1960s. I place my analysis of the youth in deep societal structures related to Liberia’s colonial past and neo-colonial status, as well as the impact of external factors, such as the financial and military support the regime of Samuel Doe received from the United States during the cold war and the influence of other African nations. I emphasize that the socio-economic and political policies implemented by the Americo- Liberians (freed slaves from the U.S.) who settled in the country beginning in 1822, helped lay the foundation for the civil war.

Promoting Institutional and Scholarly Capacity for ECD in Sub-Saharan Africa
Promoting Institutional and Scholarly Capacity for ECD in Sub-Saharan Africa This report provides background to and results from the Early Childhood Development African Tertiary Survey: A partnership between the Association for the Development of Education in Africa- Working Group on Early Childhood Development (ADEA-WGECD), UNESCO/BREDA and the University of Victoria (UVic), Early Childhood Development Virtual University (ECDVU). Final Activity Report A. Description and Background The impetus for this project grew out of a convergence of interests and undertakings by various organizations regarding the further development of Early Childhood Education, Care and Development in Sub-Saharan Africa. One facet for accomplishing this objective is to increase both the capacity of tertiary institutions to play key innovative and supportive roles in the evolution of integrated Early Childhood Development (ECD) in their country, and the ability of individual scholars to expand Africa’s contributions to the international ECD and child development literature while enhancing country and regional research. It was critical, therefore, to determine the existing institutional ECD programmes and capacities and to identify key institutions and scholars that could move this agenda forward. In early 2009 discussions between Dr. Aster Haregot of UNICEF’s Eastern and Southern Africa Region (ESAR) and Dr. Alan Pence (UVic-ECDVU) resulted in a collaboration that produced a survey which asked respondents to identify undergraduate and graduate programmes in Early Childhood Education, Care and Development (ECD/ECCD/ECE) within tertiary institutions in their country, as well as scholars with an interest and expertise in the field. The survey was sent to 29 countries in sub-Saharan Africa (including 7 countries in the Western and Central Africa Region (WCAR) that had participated in the ECDVU programme).

Aligning Expansion and Quality in Higher Education: an Imperative to Liberia’S Economic Growth and Development Charles Gbollie 1* N
Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.5, No.12, 2014 Aligning Expansion and Quality in Higher Education: An Imperative to Liberia’s Economic Growth and Development Charles Gbollie 1* N. Macpherson David 2 1. School of Psychology, Central China Normal University, 152 Luoyu Street, Wuhan City, Hubei Province, 430079, P. R. China 2. College of Environment, Hohai University, 1-Xikang Road, Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, P. R. China * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract This paper highlights and discusses the need for aligning expansion and quality of higher education in Liberia. It emphasizes that such initiative is inevitable to the sustainable economic growth and sociopolitical development of the country. Because with better education, Liberia as a country is sure to achieve political stability, create wealth and sustain growth. Honestly speaking, the existence of higher education institutions will make little or no impact on the nation’s national development agenda in the absence of quality as the ability to undertake initiatives and be innovative largely depends on the quality of knowledge acquired. Like other countries, this paper notes that Liberia’s higher education subsector continues to expand in various ways, intended to satisfy the access demand by the growing population. Consequently, there has been a tremendous increase from 3 to 30 tertiary institutions in the country. Capitalizing on Functionalist theorists’ view on HE expansion that universities can go a long way towards solving societal problems through development and use of new knowledge, this paper acquiesces, but underscores that ensuring quality is very vital in the fulfillment of HE purposes.
