For a multidimensional class analysis in Africa

Joël Noret

Review of African Political Economy, 2017, vol. 44, issue 154, 654-661

Abstract: How can we analyse the dynamics of social structure in Africa today? This Debate piece argues that a Bourdieu-inspired, multidimensional class analysis opens promising perspectives for understanding class dynamics in Africa. This implies notably bridging objectivist and subjectivist approaches to class analysis, and working with a multidimensional idea of the social space.
