Nostalgia for the Future: West Africa after the Cold War
Charles Piot
Since the end of the cold war, Africa has seen a rise in political and religious phenomena, including an eviscerated privatized state, neoliberal NGOs, Pentecostalism, a resurgence in accusations of witchcraft, and a culture of scamming and fraud. This title argues that a novel cultural politics is remaking one of the world's poorest regions.
