Using a case study of the Zama Zama, loosely translated from the isiZulu as ?to hustle, or to strive? and colloquially used to refer to those working as informal artisanal miners on Johannesburg?s numerous disused and abandoned gold mines, the book documents an ethnography of this community?s everyday lives, struggles, and hopes. It provides an intimate account of a community, its social relations, and its political relationship to the state. The narratives of the Zama Zama are used to raise broader questions about precarity, belonging, and governance in post-apartheid South Africa, and suggest that pervasive informality could risk the country's democratic order. 517 $aInformal Livelihoods and Governance in South Africa 606 $aPolitics & government$2bicssc 606 $aDevelopment studies$2bicssc 606 $aPolitical structure & processes$2bicssc 606 $aSociology$2bicssc 610 $aGlobal South politics 610 $ainformal economies 610 $aartisanal mining 610 $aSouth Africa 610 $aurban governance 610 $aSouth African politics and governance 610 $amigration 615 7$aPolitics & government 615 7$aDevelopment studies 615 7$aPolitical structure & processes 615 7$aSociology 676 $a362.50968 700 $aJinnah$b Zaheera$01270392 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910595030703321 996 $aInformal Livelihoods and Governance in South Africa$92991822 997 $aUNINA
