Politics and Identity Formation in Southeastern Nigeria: The Igbo in Perspective

Politics and Identity Formation in Southeastern Nigeria: The Igbo in Perspective is a comprehensive and multi-disciplinary exploration of the social, cultural, economic, political, and aesthetic traditions of the Igbo people of southeastern Nigeria.

This book fills an obvious gap in the existing literature on the Igbo by providing a fresh and original perspective on their experiences and forces that have shaped their society, identity formation, and sociocultural, political, and aesthetic representations.

The book covers themes such as the importance of Igbo names in understanding the people's social, linguistic, religious, gender, and cultural identities, as well as the intersection of language, politics, socialization, education, and aesthetic expression in the Igbo experience in Nigeria.

With an appreciable level of originality, the book interrogates these themes and provides a rich resource for anyone interested in Igbo studies in particular, and African studies in general.
