Some Factors In The Establishment Of Autocracy In Ghana, Peter Martin Stephenson Dec 1963

Some Factors In The Establishment Of Autocracy In Ghana, Peter Martin Stephenson

Masters Theses

In October, 1961, the Ghanaian legislature enacted two laws which received considerable attention from the world press.
