| Readings in Modernity in Africa brings together classic essays, old and new, to help assess the issues and problems of modernity in an African context. Questions include: How can we discuss modernity without lapsing into a Western-dominated view of history? How do we avoid losing sight of the diversity of local forms? How is it that modernity has such a powerful impact on African lives? This wide-ranging volume provides new perspectives and suggests alternatives for how a better future might be implemented in Africa and beyond. With excerpts from "Buying Futures": The Upsurge of Female Entrepreneurship - Crossing the Formal/Informal Divide in Southwest Cameroon, by Margaret Niger-Thomas | |
