(Middle-) Class analysis in Africa: does it work?

Roger Southall

Review of African Political Economy, 2018, vol. 45, issue 157, 467-477

Abstract: Recent interest in the growth of middle classes in Africa (and elsewhere) has been characterised by immense theoretical diversity. While this diversity indicates the complexity (and limitations) of class analysis, it remains important for the latter to be guided by the classic concerns around power, wealth and inequality which characterise radical debate.
