West African Worlds: Paths Through Socio-Economic Change, Livelihoods and Development [Paperback]

West African Worlds provides a critical assessment of social, economic and political change in Africas most populous and arguably most externally focused region. With an emphasis on globalisation and modernisation, case studies and commentary are integrated throughout to highlight the concerns and issues of the region.

Enriched by an impressive mix of West African voices, this text combines theory and application with policy and practice to address socio-economic change, the pursuit of livelihoods, and development within West Africa.Paths Through Socio-Economic Change, Livelihoods and Development in
