fjrigjwwe9r0pp_Books:Description
The United Service Institution of
India (USI) and the Nigerian Army Resource Centre (NARC) have taken an
initiative to collaborate to document experiences and methodology of dealing
with the terrorism and insurgencies in their respective nations. India and
Nigeria are dealing with the violent extremism, secessionist movements and
insurgencies due to economic, political and social reasons. Both nations have
suffered economically and the conflicts are affecting internal harmony and
social fabric of the states. The challenge to the governments is to restore
peace, harmony and economic development. The overall objective of the joint
study is to learn the lessons from the Indian and Nigerian experiences of
dealing with the violent extremism, insurgency and militancy. It is a benchmark
study that gives a profound and ringside view to the academicians and
practitioners across the globe to deal with emerging threats from terrorism and
insurgencies.
