Power and Informality in Urban Africa: Ethnographic Perspectives

Open Access Book
Laura Stark, Annika Björnsdotter Teppo (eds.) - Nordic Africa Institute (NAI)
This open access book brings together contributions from urban studies, geography, and anthropology to provide new insights into the social and political dynamics of African cities, as well as uncovering the causes and consequences of urban inequality. Featuring rich new ethnographic research data and case studies drawn from across the continent, the collection shows that Africa’s new urbanites have adapted to their environs in ways which often defy the assumptions of urban planners.
