"Postcolonial African Anthropologies showcases a selection of recent African ethnographies and critically discusses anthropology's engagement with decolonisation and postcolonialism. The ethnographies in the book show that contemporary anthropology in Africa is dynamic and deeply self-reflexive, engaging issues of power and life in Africa and its nearby diaspora in multi-vocal and diverse ways. The book offers insight into gender relations in southern Africa the politics of healing and mutual support, identity in North Africa, the intellectual relationship between India and Africa and cultural continuities in Indian Ocean Africa." .
