Book excerpt: Defence and national security in Africa are relatively neglected areas of study, especially by Nigerian scholars, although research in these areas appears to be on the increase in some Nigerian universities.

The book is organised into four main sections: internal security linkages, external linkages, the enforcement linkages and the defence component.
