Description

Explore the complex relationship between industrial decline and the legacy of deceased workers in this scholarly work from Routledge. Death and the Textile Industry in Nigeria examines the impact of deindustrialization in Kaduna, Nigeria, specifically focusing on the decline of the textile sector and its lasting effects on families. This book investigates how the dead continue to influence the lives of Christians and Muslims who worked at the KTL mill. It details how deceased workers serve as vital links for families seeking termination remittances and maintain connections to extended family members across different regions of Nigeria. Beyond financial implications, the text looks at how the memory of the deceased functions as a way to claim land and housing in Kaduna. This study provides a deep look into the social and economic consequences of industrial shifts through the lens of anthropology and sociology, making it a significant resource for those studying African history and social structures.
