Nearly half the people born on the remote Mbuke Islands become teachers, businessmen, or bureaucrats in urban centers, while those who stay at home ask migrant relatives 'What about me?'

As the state withdraws, Mbuke people explore what social ends might be reached through involvement with the cash economy"--Provided by publisher |
