Ghana’s Employment Challenges (Proceedings, 2001)
Proceedings, Founder’s Week Celebrations, November 2001.
Effective tackling of Ghana’s alarming unemployment challenges has eluded governments to-date. Possible strategies for it continue to be debated in national discourse. Colossal youth unemployment and its general grave consequences for society at large and for the affected individuals remain a major concern. As recently witnessed in North Africa, governments ignore the challenge at their own peril.
This volume brings together papers, which were presented and examined at length at the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences’ 2011 Founder’s Week Celebration. The papers provide insights and a sound basis for planning comprehensively to address the diverse features of the issue.

We the People and the Politics of Inclusion (Annual Lecture in the Humanities)
Lecture delivered by Professor Kwame Gyekye, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, University of Ghana and Scholar-in-Residence, Ashesi University (2010/2011). Delivered on 24 September 2013.
“The words of the preamble of constitutions are emphatic on the centrality of the status of the people in the political order that was expected to be established by these constitutions. The self-referential phrase – We the People – mandates, without a shadow of doubt, a political system that is to be an inclusive system. For, without the politics of inclusion, that self-referential phrase becomes drained of real significance. It is the politics of inclusion, as interpreted in this lecture, that will, beyond representation, give adequate effect to and practical translation of the notion of the constitutional phrase: We the People.”
