Abstract:This paper deals with theoretical aspects of change and growth. To illustrate the issue, the author uses an empirical case from the Islamic north of Nigeria - that of the Northern Nigeria Development Corporation (NNDC). The question is: in how far is an institution that is designed to stimulate and support growth, practically able to perform the mobilising function theoretically attached to it, in a given historical environment? Notes.
