This work is dedicated to the hardworking people of Ghana, many of whom toil from dawn to dusk in often forgotten informal sectors of the economy and rural environments, away from the cities, high-rise buildings, banking halls, and government offices.
And to the memory of our friend, teacher, mentor, and dear colleague Professor Cyril K. Daddieh who is sorely missed for his generous spirit, humor, wit, sharp intellect, and also for his genuine passion and commitment to Ghanas democratic process.
