Grounded in both theory and ethnography, this volume insists on
taking social positionality seriously when accounting for Africa's
current age of polarizing wealth. To this end, the book advocates a
multidimensional view of African societies, in which social
positions consist of a variety of intersecting social powers - or
'capitals' - including wealth, education, social relationships,
religion, ethnicity, and others. Accordingly, the notion of social
im/mobilities emphasizes the complexities of current changes,
taking us beyond the prism of a one-dimensional social ladder, for
social moves cannot always be apprehended through the binaries of
'gains' and 'losses'.
