Karen Tranberg Hansen (Author)
This book pens a window on the experiences of urban people living through one of Africa’s most dramatic economic declines in the postcolonial era by focusing on such broad themes as household dynamics, gender politics, and informal economy in Mtendere. The author argues that African urbanism is not purely a product of colonialism but a result of a wide variety of influences both local and foreign.
