Description

Explore the complex relationship between mining activities and urban growth in Sub-Saharan Africa. This book by Routledge examines how both small-scale artisanal and large-scale mining operations change African economies. It looks at how global shifts in capital and labour flows affect population and settlement patterns across the continent. While urbanisation is often linked to general industrial expansion, this text identifies mining as a specific type of industrial activity with its own unique impacts. By looking at countries with long histories of large-scale mining, such as South Africa and Ghana, the book provides a detailed look at welfare trajectories and how mining shapes the way people live and settle in urban areas.
