{"product_id":"land-labour-and-entrustment-pamela-kea-9789004182325","title":"Land, Labour and Entrustment","description":"Diverse contractual arrangements and forms of exchange established between smallholder farmers, their households and community work groups, are important to our understanding of processes of agrarian transformation in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, little has been written in this area. Challenging portrayals of West African female farmers as a homogenous group, the present study provides an ethnographic account of the contractual relations established between female hosts and migrants, in the exchange of land and labour for agrarian production in a Gambian community. Further, it demonstrates the way in which, despite the liberalization of the economy, local cultural practices, such as that of entrustment, continue to be of significance in affecting the nature and particular character of agrarian transformation and postcolonial capitalist development.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pamela Kea\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004182322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004182325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.42w x 0.54d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2010 pg. 106","brand":"Pamela Kea","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49148329918719,"sku":"9789004182325","price":97.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/land-labour-and-entrustment-pamela-kea-9789004182325","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
