| 要約: | AN INAUGURAL LECTURE at Ife can now be rightly regarded
as an academic 'christening' ceremony, with the Vice-Chancellor
as the officiating 'minister' and, the victim of the occasion reciting
the 'creed'. Probably, it would have been much easier and
enjoyable if this were to be a swearing-in ceremony. The chair
which I have the greatest pleasure and honour to inaugurate this
afternoon is a new one at Ife, and with a conscious sense of
modesty, it is indeed, the first chair of Economic History in
Nigeria. My task would have been easier if I have had some
Nigerian predecessors who could by now, have argued and
concluded the debate on the nature, methods and significance of
Economic History within the Nigerian context. Their ratio
decidendi could have been available to me in professing economic
history. However, I can only hope that by the end of this lecture, I
would have opened some new channels of communication and
understanding between Economics and Economic History on the
one hand and the other areas of social sciences on the other hand |
