Give a man a fish : reflections on the new politics of distribution

James Ferguson ; Foreward by Thomas Gibson.
Durham ; London : Duke University Press, 2015. ©2015
James Ferguson examines the rise of social welfare programs in southern Africa in which states give cash payments to their low income citizens. These programs, Ferguson argues, offer new opportunities for political mobilization and inspire new ways to think about issues of production, distribution, markets, labor and unemployment.
