Detailing the many ways ordinary Angolans fashion their relationships with the system-an emic notion of their current political and socioeconomic environment-Jon Schubert explores what it means and how it feels to be part of the contemporary Angolan polity. Schubert finds that for many ordinary Angolans, the benefits of the post-conflict "New Angola," flush with oil wealth and in the midst of a construction boom, are few. The majority of the inhabitants of the capital, Luanda, struggle to make ends meet and live on under $2 .00 per day. The "New Angola" as promoted by the ruling MPLA, Schubert contends, is an essentially urban, upwardly mobile, and aspirational project, premised on the acceptance of the regime's political and economic dominance by its citizens. In the first ethnography of Angola to be published since the end of that country's twenty-seven years of intermittent violent internal conflict in 2002, Schubert traces how Angolans may question and resist the system within an atmosphere of apparent compliance. Working the System will appeal to anthropologists and political scientists, urban sociologists, and scholars of African studies. 606 $aEthnology$zAngola 606 $aPolitics and culture$zAngola 606 $aPower (Social sciences)$zAngola 606 $aPostwar reconstruction$xSocial aspects$zAngola 607 $aAngola$xHistory$y2002- 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aPolitics and culture 615 0$aPower (Social sciences) 615 0$aPostwar reconstruction$xSocial aspects 676 $a967.304/2 700 $aSchubert$b Jon$f1982-$01611561 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822265503321 996 $aWorking the system$93939888 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01149nam0 22002653i 450 001 VAN00092077 005 20240806100652.930 100 $a20121126d1894 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aˆIl ‰diritto civile e il proletariato$estudio critico sul progetto di un codice civile per l'Impero germanico$f Antonio Menger$gprima traduzione autorizzata per Giuseppe Oberosler 210 $aTorino [etc.]$cFratelli Bocca$d 1894 215 $a180 p.$d25 cm 316 $aBiblioteca Lauria$5IT-IT-CE0105 CONSBL.800M.379 620 $dTorino$3VANL000001 700 1$aMenger$bAnton$3VANV074312$0127332 701 1$aOberosler$bGiuseppe$3VANV074313$0191893 712 $a*Bocca $3VANV109694$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20250711$gRICA 899 $aBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI GIURISPRUDENZA$1IT-CE0105$2VAN00 912 $aVAN00092077 950 $aBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI GIURISPRUDENZA$d00CONS BL.800M.379 $e00BL 3565 20121126 Biblioteca Lauria 996 $aDiritto civile e il proletariato$91409429 997 $aUNICAMPANIA
