Originally published in 1987, this book traces the broad outlines
of urban food policy, drawing attention to the limited knowledge of
regional social history. Urban food supply systems in Africa have
developed very fast, in the midst of societies in which food
production was not in general oriented to feeding distant
populations of 'specialist consumers'. Institutional and political
links had to be forged between town and country if food supply was
to be cheap and predictable. This volume explores the political and
material dynamics of urban food supply through 4 case studies:
Kano, Yaounde, Dar es Salaam and Harare.
