Description

The movement of workers involved in long-distance trade in Africa constitutes one of the most ancient and most massive forms of labour migration in African history. Focusing primarily on the latter half of the nineteenth century, the contributors to this volume examine various aspects of long-distance trade: including the role of the family, wage employment, slavery, and the entrepreneur; the institutions that mobilized and organized the work force; and the workers' remuneration and the accumulation of surplus.
