Sommario/riassunto

Xenophobia is a political discourse. As such, its historical development as well as the conditions of its existence must be elucidated in terms of the practices and prescriptions that structure the field of politics. In South Africa, its history is connected to the manner citizenship has been conceived and fought over during the past fifty years at least. Migrant labour was de-nationalised by the apartheid state, while African nationalism saw it as the very foundation of that oppressive system. However, only those who could show a family connection with the colonial/apartheid formation of Sout

Sommario/riassunto

Les marchés du travail en Afrique restent à ce jour largement inexplorés et leur fonctionnement méconnu. Leur connaissance est pourtant centrale dans les politiques de développement et de lutte contre la pauvreté. Quelles sont les personnes qui n'ont pas accès à l'emploi ou sont sous-employées ? Comment le secteur formel cohabite-t-il avec le secteur informel ? Existe-t-il des traits communs à l'ensemble des marchés urbains du travail en Afrique, ou bien chaque pays est-il un cas particulier ? Quels liens entretiennent-ils avec la migration, l'éducation et les discriminations ethniques ou de genre ? Telles sont quelques-unes des questions traitées ici, à travers l'analyse d'une série unique d'enquêtes parfaitement harmonisées, réalisées dans une dizaine de pays du continent. Cet ouvrage collectif fournit le premier bilan actualisé du marché du travail en Afrique subsaharienne. Un outil précieux en matière de lutte contre la pauvreté.

Sommario/riassunto

This book offers a tour of the history of medical virology in the Netherlands from the nineteenth century to the new millennium. Beginning with the discovery of the first virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, the authors investigate the reception and redefinition of his concept in medical circles and its implications for medical practice, particularly in the diagnosis and prevention of viral infections. The relatively slow progress of these areas in the first half of the twentieth century and their explosive growth in the wake of molecular techniques are examined. The surveillance and control of virus diseases in the field of public health is treated in depth, as are tumour virus research and



the important Dutch contributions to technical developments instrumental in advancing virology worldwide. Particular attention is paid to oft forgotten virus research in the former Dutch colonies in the East and West Indies and Africa.
