Gender and the Information Revolution in Africa
Urban Labor Markets in Sub-Saharan Africa
Although labor is usually the unique asset upon which poor people can make a living, little is known about the functioning of labor markets in Sub-Saharan Africa. The purpose of this volume is to contribute to the building of knowledge in this area. In this book, the authors use a unique set of identical and simultaneous labor force surveys conducted in seven capitals of Western Africa, as well as in some other African countries (Cameroon, Madagascar, Democratic Republic of Congo) in the 2000s. They present innovative and original results on how people are faring in these labour markets, using up-to-date econometric and statistical methods. Because so little is known about labor markets in t...
Des femmes écrivent l'Afrique
Des femmes écrivent l'Afrique est un projet de reconstruction culturelle qui se propose de donner à entendre de par le monde des voix de femmes africaines, pour la plupart méconnues. Depuis son lancement, ce projet a d'ores et déjà abouti à la publication, par la Feminist Press de New York, de trois anthologies régionales en anglais. Les Editions Karthala publient à leur tour les volumes de la collection en traduction française, à Paris. Ce second volume à paraître en français est destiné à transformer radicalement nos perceptions de l'histoire et de la culture de l'Afrique australe. Il comporte des textes d'Afrique du Sud, du Botswana, du Lesotho, de Namibie, du Swaziland et ...
God's Bits of Wood
It is 1947 and the workers on the Dakar-Niger Railway have come out on strike. Sembène Ousmane, in this vivid and moving novel, evokes all of the colour, passion and tragedy of those decisive years in history. 'Ever since they left Thiès, the women had not stopped singing. As soon as one group allowed the refrain to die, another picked it up, and new verses were born at the hazard of chance or inspiration, one word leading to another and each finding, in its turn, its rhythm and its place. No one was very sure any longer where the song began, or if it had an ending.' God's Bits of Wood is Sembène Ousmane's internationally renowned novel, based on his own experiences of the landmark 1947 railroad strike that spread across French West Africa. 'A classic.' Guardian 'Ousmane Sembène [was] a crucial figure in Africa's postcolonial cultural awakening.' New York Times 'A powerful story.' Kirkus Translated from the French by Francis Price.

Sexe, genre et société-Engendrer les sciences sociales africaines
Cet ouvrage représente la traduction du livre intitulé Engendering African social, issu des travaux d'un atelier organisé par le CODESRIA en 1991. Les contributions réunies dans ce volume ont été rédigées selon des approches disciplinaires différentes, mais leur point commun réside dans une volonté affirmée d'opérer une véritable rupture épistémologique dans les sciences sociales africaines.
