the framework gives structure to the analysis in subsequent chapters.
Ghana is reflected in the country's inability to bridge the rural-urban poverty profile and the withdrawal of the state from the provisions of essential social services.
the common good means essentially obedience to the law, either that of their earthly sovereigns or that of God.
the end of sovereignty is the exercise of it.
