Nigeria

Exploring how Nigeria leverages its borders as tools of influence, this book analyzes the country's use of land, air, sea, cyberspace, and even outer space to shape its relations with other African states. Drawing on African realist perspectives, the authors show how Nigeria's geographic position serves as a diplomatic instrument, enabling it to assert regional aspirations and project both soft and hard power. They examine Nigeria's strategic positioning among its West African neighbors, detailing the ways borders function as levers in the nation's foreign policy. The work offers an in-depth look at Nigeria's geopolitical maneuvers and the complex dynamics of its international engagements.
