“Johannesburg, South Africa, is often associated with inequality and referred to as the quintessential ‘apartheid city’. Yet this book argues that Johannesburg, part of the highly urbanized Gauteng City-Region, is actually an ‘ordinary’ space where spatial changes both marginalize and create opportunities for people going about their live....Through deep insight into the practices and experiences of everyday life, Lindsay Blair Howe shows how cities and regions like greater Johannesburg are more than just a sum of their parts.” - Publisher

“Recent estimates suggest that at least 2 out of 5 youth are in a state of long-term joblessness or unemployment for a period of one year or more. In light of these observations and Tanzania’s attempts to transform its economy through among others labour market and training reforms, this book revisits the debate on youth (un)employment and skills in Tanzania. This is done by examining the institutional capacity of TVET organizations, and the desire of employers to engage TVET graduates” – Book Summary

"This is a brilliant book. It sensitively tells the stories of seafarers on dhows traversing the Indian Ocean. We hear about their struggles with caste and class prejudice, racism and Islamophobia. The seafarers aboard dhows who navigate multiple sovereignties at sea and complex border regimes on land are rendered lovingly here, in three dimensions and with all the requisite appreciation of complexity and respect for their trajectories" - Book Reviewer

“I Have a Home, There Is a We, whose original Swahili edition was in 2015 the first book of poetry to win the Safal-Cornell Kiswahili Prize for African Literature.....The book explores the poet’s life as a migrant in Germany: linguistic and cultural alienation, nostalgia, and longing for his homeland on the island of Pemba. These poems form a catalog of sorrow and love addressed to the family he left behind, to the children whose roots “he tore forcefully from the ground” in hopes of offering them a better life, and above all to the country he calls home, using the deeply resonant Swahili term “kwetu”—our place—named over and over again as Zanzibar” - Publisher

“Dividing Dar offers a novel approach to colonial urban history. In contrast to the traditional focus on top-down urban planning, knowledge production, and municipal politics, the book builds on a growing body of literature on colonial intermediaries and urbanism "from the middle" to address questions of historical agency, the construction of sociocultural hierarchies, and the mutations of African urbanism under the forces of German colonial occupation” - Publisher
