Iron Cages: Paradigms, Ideologies and the Crisis of the Postcolonial State
Alison Jones
Addresses the crisis of the postcolonial state by exploring the interaction between the iron cages of knowledge - of which social science paradigms are taken as emblematic - and lived worlds as experienced by 'ordinary' Africans. This book focuses on two paradigms in particular, modernisation theory and Marxism-Leninism.
