This volume explores the multiple meanings and implications of
lobola in Southern Africa. The payment of lobola (often
controversially translated as 'bridewealth') is an entrenched
practice in most societies in Southern Africa. Although having a
long tradition, of late there have been voices questioning its
relevance in contemporary times while others vehemently defend the
practice. This book brings together a range of scholars from
different academic disciplines, national contexts, institutions,
genders, and ethnic backgrounds to debate the relevance of lobola
in contemporary southern African communities for gender equality.
