Beyond the Formal and the Informal: Urban Lifeworlds on the African Continent

Manuel Herz, Prof., Urban Studies, University of Basel

"SamstagsUni" now in English

In the University on Saturdays four of Basel University's academics working in the field of African Studies provide an insight into their research and deepen our understanding of contemporary African societies and cultures and their interplay with global developments.
In cooperation with University of Basel
