Item description from the seller

In Pillars of Statecraft, Kofo Obasanjo-Blackshire presents a well-structured concept based on six pillars, which constitute essential ingredients for successful state building.

They are the consequence of wide-ranging conversations and meticulous research using a broad range of sources, many contemporary —on failed and failing states, civil wars, diplomacy and the relations between nations—that reveal a careful mind-engaging interrogation of the complicated issues with grace, ease and understanding.
The outcome is an engaging, readable, accessible and compelling argument on what comprises a successful state, providing many interesting insights into the causes of threats and problems to human security and well-being and possible ways to approach the resolution of these to create a fairer and safer world for all.

The sincerity and compassion of the author shines through what is at times a challenging read, given the turbulence of contemporary global politics.
These concepts, which focus on Protection, Prosperity, Population, Politics, Partnership, and the double-barrelled P—prayer and pleasing God present vital arguments that gird their importance for success in any sphere of national development and address the complex challenges thereof. The essays in this book are the product of the author’s eclectic educational background and work experience.
