Abstract

This study examines the critical nature and the difficulties associated with understanding the fundamental ideology of the postcolonial wave of new terrorism on the African continent. This is facilitated through a contemporary interpretation of elite dominant economic and political structures and their role in the transformation and activation of latent ideologies of socioeconomic liberation. The consequences of the interaction of these dominance structures in the society are examined as a colonial legacy, which predicts and domiciles a state of international dependency and a culture of corruption within postcolonial African states. The remedy for this practice is discussed as a function of good governance and is based on the expansion of communication, socioeconomic opportunities, and social mobility.
