Afrika devletlerinin idari yapısı ve petrol politikası: Angola ve Nijerya karşılaştırması

Angola and Nigeria are front running countries in terms of natural wealth among other countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. Angola lived under Portuguese rule before gaining independence. Nigeria, on the other hand, was under British colonization. Both still carry part of cultures they had acquired during the colonial period. At present, oil resources are the key element for their economic persistence and they have a notable position in the global oil market. Due to their colonial background, post-colonial experience and challenges that they have faced along with administrative and economic structure, both countries are essential to penetrate in many ways. The central axis of this study is that it explores whether federalism enhances democratic quality and ensures reduction of disparities through equitable sharing of oil revenues.
