Disenchantment with democracy: What solutions for Nigeria's development problems?
In: Development and cooperation: D+C, Heft 5, S. 21-23
ISSN: 0723-6980
On May 29, 1999, Nigeria returned to democracy after 16 years of military rule. President Olusegun Obasanjo is a statesman who is widely respected throughout the world. But while he has been representing his country in many international fora, more and more people at home are becoming disenchanted with the civilian government. Never since the Biafran War (1967-70) has the country been so divided. Will the country manage to overcome its economic and political crisis? It is up to Nigeria's elites to turn the tide. (D+C/DÜI)

Conflict in Metropolitan Areas
In: The annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, Band 416, Heft 1, S. 148-157
ISSN: 1552-3349
The dichotomy between the central city and its suburbs is more pronounced than the more traditional conflict between rural and urban areas. Central cities contain the con centrations of the poor in the metropolitan area because of the lack of low income housing outside the city. The basic conflict arises from the contention for resources between the "have" suburban communities and the "have-not" central cities. Unless the suburbs are opened up to lower income residents, central cities will become even more impoverished. Conflict arises as suburbs fight to maintain the housing status quo, as cities fight to prevent expressways from destroying additional housing and tax base and to attain greater emphasis on adequate transportation, as heavy reliance on the property tax leads central city and suburb to compete for the same industry. In general, voluntary intergovernmental groups have not been responsive to central city needs in the metro politan area. What is required is a basic change in the system which separates resources from need and provides both greater fiscal equity and a metropolitan-wide sharing of the burden of social problems.
