In view of the unprecedented level of socioeconomic and political underdevelopment plaguing the African continent, there remains one key area in the polity with great potentials which remains largely untapped: civil society. What can it contribute to the alleviation of the burden of underdevelopment in Africa? What is the place of the Church in civil society, particularly in Nigeria? Can there be a sustainable cooperation between the Church and other civic groups in the country for the purpose of development? Using mainly literature-based methods, this work seeks to dig into the understanding of civil society from the ancient Aristotelian «polis» to its 21st century African idea. It discusses the place of the Church in relation to the social question. Some of the vital areas of the Church’s civil societal involvement ad intra and with other civil groups are examined, using the Caritas’ structural principle of approach. Some major challenges hindering the vital input of the two institutions towards sustainable socioeconomic and political development are x-rayed. It extensively exposes the immense potentials for development through the cooperation between the two institutions. Conversely, some enormous challenges facing civil societal cooperation for development are discussed. Finally, research goes on to put forward some vital insights, ideas and suggestions for the fruitful cooperation towards the realization of the potentials for national development.

Описание: In a world of selfishness and self-centeredness where the plight and feelings of others do not matter, in a world full of hatred where we practice selfish Christianity and care little about our neighbor, and in a world of faithlessness and hopelessness, this book gives us the remedy. The New Commandment introduces to us the three most fundamental tenets of a peaceful society: justice, mercy, and faith. Any society that abandons these principles has lost both God and humanity and has absolutely reduced life to a circle of meaningless, endless activities. In this book, you will discover the operations of justice, mercy, and faith and gain deeper understanding about life. In this world-where power, ego, selfishness, and apathy toward God and humanity have taken over mankind-little attention is given to the weighty matters of justice, mercy, and faith. These are the foundations upon which strong and enduring societies are built. God Himself established the world on these three foundations and has ordered His creation to do the same. It is in these precepts that we find purpose, peace, progress, prosperity, meaning, love, brotherliness, and a sense of community. You cannot achieve lasting peace and prosperity without justice. Life is meaningless when there is no faith-in yourself or in God. There is no God up there somewhere in the heavens that we claim to worship if we cannot see Him in one another, in the face of injustice, and in the faces of the poor, needy, and oppressed. You cannot truly say you have served God and humanity in the absence of mercy. God is just, merciful, and faithful. Every individual deserves justice, every individual deserves mercy, and everyone needs faith. These three tenets give meaning to life.
