描述 | .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. . |
