Using a case study of the Zama Zama, loosely translated from the isiZulu as ‘to hustle, or to strive’ and colloquially used to refer to those working as informal artisanal miners on Johannesburg’s numerous disused and abandoned gold mines, the book documents an ethnography of this community’s everyday lives, struggles, and hopes. It provides an intimate account of a community, its social relations, and its political relationship to the state. The narratives of the Zama Zama are used to raise broader questions about precarity, belonging, and governance in post-apartheid South Africa, and suggest that pervasive informality could risk the country‘s democratic order.. | | 出版日期 | Book‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘ 2022 | | 关键词 | Open Access; Global South politics; informal economies; artisanal mining; South Africa; urban governance; | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-10695-8 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-10695-8 | | copyright | The Author(s) 2022 |
