Prof. Dr. Mirjam de Bruijn en Dr. Rijk van Dijk edited a new publication: ‘The Social Life of Connectivity in Africa’.

In an age of new technologies of connections, understanding social transformations in Africa through connections has become pivotal. Africa has now arrived at a juncture, referred to as a ‘post-global’ moment, where connections have turned the global to a normalcy in Africa and elsewhere. The studies outlined in this volume explore how connectedness continues to change Africa and how Africa continues to shape the social life of connections.
