Suturing the City: Living Together in Congo's Urban Worlds

An ethnographic and photographic investigation into the complex meanings of living in Congo's urban worlds today. Focusing upon the 'urban now', a moment suspended between lingering precolonial references, the broken dreams of a colonial past, and the not yet realised promises of neoliberal futures, this book provides an ethnographic and photographic investigation of the complex meanings of living - and living together - in Congo's urban worlds today.
