Kakaamotobe: Fancy Dress Carnival in Ghana

By Courtnay Micots

This book examines how Fancy Dress in Ghana voices public commentary on pop culture; social and cultural mores; and local, national, and international politics and economy. A vital creative expression of the lower classes, Kakaamotobe is both comedic entertainment and an expression of power, identity, and modernity in Ghanaian communities.
