Political Economy of Policymaking in Nigeria. Applying the Kaleido- scope Model This research activity will use the Kaleidoscope Model (KM) of Agricultural and Food Secu- rity Policy Change as an applied conceptual framework to explain drivers of policy change in the agricultural policy arena in the case of Nigeria. The framework is aimed at answering why a policy change occurs in one country (or state) and not another, in one policy arena but not another, or at one time period but not another. The KM will nicely complement many of the other planned research activities within the project, especially with respect to drivers of agricultural transformation and land governance issues. In particular during Year 1, this research activity will focus on the key question, namely, why there have been differential levels of land administration across Nigerian states and what are the limitations to more large-scale implementation of SLTR. The research activity will also involve Nigeri- an PhD students involved in public administration and policy studies to participate in the interviews and the construction of the tools with respect to the study above on land tenure reform.
