Reviews

The work explores critical dimensions of freedom and unfreedom, within the context of constitutional democracy, through Nigeria's prism. This is helpful to the expansion of understanding of the increasingly complex concept of liberties, in the spaces and places of democracy; and in the mixed messages of actors within. It is, therefore, a significant entrant into the literature on constitutional democracy, and the shifting question of freedom, which should have otherwise been stable, given the fact that liberty is ideally envisaged in a democracy. -- Abiodun Adeniyi, Baze University
