Julius E. Nyang'oro
Title:
Professor and Chair, African and Afro-American Studies; Adjunct Professor, Political Science
Education:
B.A., Political Science, University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania; M.A., Ph.D., Political Science, Miami University; J.D., Duke University
Teaching Interests:
At a general level, I teach courses that deal with the Comparative Political Economy of Development; Africa in the Global System, and the role of Law in National Development. In terms of sub-regional interest in Africa, I teach courses on Eastern and Southern Africa.
Current Research:
In the past two decades my primary research interest has been on Africa's comparative political economy, particularly the role of the State in national development. This interest has resulted in a number of books including
The State and Capitalist Development in Africa (1989). In the last decade my work has focused on the role of civil society in Africa's democratization. This interest has resulted in collaborative work with colleagues in Africa. The results of this collaborative work include an edited volume:
Civil Society and Democratic Development in Africa (1999). Currently my research is on governance issues in Africa in light of globalization and the discourse on democracy.
My Opinion
When did Dr. Nyang'oro left Tanzania? Is he still connected with the people of Tanzania? Was this book his or president idea? Why now and not 2015? Will they come up with number 2?
