520    "Globally, women are oppressed and this book introduces 
       the perspective of African women and especially that of 
       Nigerian women. This book looks at the major themes that 
       drive the women's empowerment programs in Nigeria. 
       Feminists in Nigeria are shaped by the institutions, 
       values, ideologies, and since the 1970s, the UN and its 
       agencies have added an international dimension. The 
       chapters, while taking us through a theoretical overview 
       of Nigerian women's empowerment, also shows how 
       institutions, values, religion, and culture can challenge 
       feminist political philosophy-- a philosophy that tends to
       universalize women’s problems and their solutions"--
