1Iheanyi M. Enwerem, o.P., who was ordained a Catholic priest on July 8, 1978, is a member of the well known Catholic religious order, the Order of Preachers (Dominicans). He holds a B.A. (Hons) degree in Philosophy (University of Leuven, Belgium), M.A. in Theology (University of Toronto, Canada), and M.A. and Ph.D. in Social and Political Thought (York University, Toronto, Canada).

2After teaching in the Division of Social Science in his alma mater, York University, and in the Department of History and Political Science at King's College of the University of Western Ontario in Canada where he also served as a Chaplain, Father Iheanyi was recalled home in 1993 by his religious authorities to become the foundation President of the Dominican Institute of Philosophy and Theology, Ibadan. In addition, he is the Moderator of Studies for the Nigerian Province of the Order and, as such, is responsible for the intellectual formation of the young men aspiring to the priesthood in his Order.

3Besides his current administrative responsibilities, and as he does not want to lose touch with the classroom where he feels he really belongs, Father Iheanyi teaches some social science courses at SS. Peter and Paul Catholic Seminary, Ibadan, and at the Dominican Institute which has just been affiliated to Nigeria's premier university, the University of Ibadan. Prior to writing this book, he has published a number of articles in the general area of religion, politics and society.
