dc.description.abstract“Tomatoes and taxi ranks” provides an intimate account of what poor urban Africans eat; where they source their food; how their diets and nutritional intake changes with urbanisation; and the corrosive capitalist logics that drive much of these processes. It reveals urban living as marked by a soulless ‘convenience.’ The book suggests that international trade policy must connect with local regulations in order to alter the course of urban livelihoods and wellbeing for the urban poor. It demands a fundamental remaking of governance, and calls for new forms of urban citizenship.en
