The social and theoretical difficulties raised by the process of urbanization and westernization have constituted a key problem in the urban sociology of developing countries, in the sociology of development and in urban anthropology. This study of social relationships in the towns of South Central Africa is based on material the author assembled over 21 years of working in Africa.
A dramatic consequence of the impact of Western capitalism on countries to which it has turned for raw materials and export markets has been the spectacular growth of cities in developing regions. Drawing on empirical material assembled during his twenty-one years in Africa, Mitchell here uses statistical analysis to investigate changing urban conditions in South Central Africa and their wider social, political, and economic contexts. This comparative study provides a unique springboard for an examination of the way in which urban sociologists and anthropologists think about urban phenomena in general.
