Since the incorporation of the Nigerian economy into the World Capitalist System, the indigenous social structure was fundamentally restructured. This restructuring was (and is still) affecting the family institution in its performance of the most important task of youth socialization leading to cases of what have been described as child abuse, urban violence, working children and, even, sexually deteriorating/ transmitted infections as a result of irresponsible sexual behavior among the youth. If the situation persists, what are the implications for the future of the individual youth and the family? How can the transition being experienced by the family be controlled to positively influence the future of the youth and, by implication, the society as a whole? This paper attempts to provide answers to these questions.

separate overlapping transitions when one transition goes into the reversing signal and the other into the nonreversing signal. But what if both go into the reversing signal such as a melting transition overlapping a glass transition due to a phase

1 Introduction Existing approaches to energy transitions agree that a single explanatory theory is not feasible due to its complexity. Instead, academics suggest that energy transitions should be studied together with several theories from political

There are several approaches for the description of phase transitions (PT). leading to different classification schemes:Approach Classification scheme bythermodynamicorder (after Ehrenfest)kineticreversibility, quenchability, hysteresisstructuralrelationship of crystallographic axes before and after PTmechanisticactual migration path of atoms during PT The most important techniques for investigating PT include DTA and DSC thermo-optical analysis, melastic neutron scattering, IR and Raman spectroscopy and elastic X-ray and neutron diffraction. The latter, as dependent on the temperature, can give indications on the mechanism of PT. The appropriate application of these techniques is demonstrated on the example of the polymorphism of KPO3.
