Globalization, Urban Progress, Urban Problems, Rural Disadvantages: Evidence from Mozambique book by Stefanie Knauder

In this book scholars present new interpretations of African cities, from the pre-colonial to the modern, set in the context of national and international economy, politics and culture. While providing insights into the evolution of African cities, they also raise issues of vital importance to the survival of African cities. The chapters capture the mixed legacies of colonialism and the lingering consequences of neo-colonialism in a so-called age of globalisation. Published By Africa World Press on 2004
