A rich ethnographic portrait of food-provisioning processes in a
contemporary African city, offering valuable lessons about the
powerful roles of gender, migration, exchange, sex, and charity in
food acquisition. Based on anthropologist Karen Coen Flynn's study
of Mwanza, Tanzania, this work draws on the personal accounts of
over 350 market vendors, low, middle and high-income consumers,
urban farmers as well as those, including children, who live on the
streets. This strikingly original work offers interdisciplinary
appeal to a broad audience of both students and professionals
interested in anthropology, African studies, urban studies, gender
studies and development economics.
