Symbols of Change: Urban Transition in a Zambian Community

by Bennetta Jules-Rosette and Jules-Rosette

Based on a four-year longitudinal study of urban adaptation in Lusaka, Zambia, this book offers both a theoretical analysis and a case study of African urbanization as a social process. The author's unique approach to this topic lies in her exploration of city-life adjustment through the subjective perception of the new urbanites themselves. The book contains the original interview material and numerous photos of the extensive fieldwork.
