Description

Explore a transformative look at African labor through this groundbreaking work from Routledge. This book provides a wide range of perspectives on how research regarding labor in African contexts has changed over the last twenty years. Written by a diverse group of social scientists and historians, the text moves beyond traditional Marxist perspectives to offer new ways of understanding African laborers, working classes, and economies. By adopting innovative paradigms, the authors examine localized and fluid conceptions of productivity and materiality. As labor and capital become increasingly mobile, this study addresses the necessity of looking at both local and national factors. It serves as an essential resource for those studying the shifts in African economic structures and the evolving nature of work on the continent.
