Recenzii
“In the wealth of literature on mining and mine communities in Africa, arguably no case study has been subject to more intensive interest than the Zambian Copperbelt. With There Used to Be Order, Patience Mususa provides an ethnographically rich, contemporary and creative academic contribution to the study of the Zambian Copperbelt and to mining communities in Africa more broadly. In this beautiful book, Mususa takes the reader on a journey through the everyday navigation of hardship and precarity by primarily middle-class Copperbelt residents, with whom she lived and amongst whom she conducted her research.”
"Written in a very beautiful style, Patience Mususa's book offers a reflection on the life and future of the inhabitants of northern Zambia (mainly the Copperbelt region) following ethnographic surveys conducted for the most part between 2007 and 2009."
