Negotiating Modernity: Africa's Ambivalent Experience
ISBN: 9781842776179 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Modernity is the unfinished business of our times. In the case of Africa, as the scholars contributing to this volume show, the continent has been through a particularly ambivalent experience of modernity.

Scholars therefore call for a new approach to urban studies which examines cities from a more global comparative perspective. This book discusses the new approach, which pays added attention to the role that societal creativity plays in processes of urbanization, instead of...
