Leiden ; Boston : Brill, [2017] 1 online resource (xi, 278 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource rdacarrier Africa-Europe group for interdisciplinary studies ; v. 18 The Making of the African Road offers an account of the long-distance road in Africa. Being a latecomer to automobility and far from saturated mass mobility, the African road continues to be open for diverging interpretations and creative appropriations.

The contributions to this volume provide first-hand anthropological insights into the infrastructural, economic, historical as well as experiential dimensions of the emerging orders of the African road.
