Unions Without Unionism, Governments Without Governance: Essays In Honour Of Professor Funminiyi Oladele Adewumi; Edited by Owei Lakemfa & Ahmed Aminu Yusuf; Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, Abuja, Nigeria; 2018; 306pp
According to the editors, Owei Lakemfa and Ahmed Aminu Yusuf, in their Preface, “Professor Funmi Adewumi, in his thoughts and deeds, was an intellectual of the universe, not just because he taught in various countries and crisscrossed the universe seeking and spreading knowledge, but because his worldview, learning, research and work had universal origins and applications.”
The title of the book is taken from Professor Funmi Adewunmi’s 2009 Inaugural Lecture at Crawford University, Faith City, Igbesa, Ogun State, to wit, “Unions Without Unionism: Towards Trade Union Relevance In Nigeria’s Industrial Relations System And Polity,” which is included here.
Aside from proclaiming the bona-fides of Professor Funmi Adewuni and what he stood for and why he stood for the principles, Unions Without Unionism, Governments Without Governance interrogates the Nigerian state’s implementation of undemocratic, nondemocratic and anti-democracy neoliberal policies as exemplified by the Structural Adjustment Programme .
