This is a collection of original studies investigating the multifaceted notion of African modernities.The authors examine ideas and practices of modernity as well as the implication of its meaning in current acadamic debate. Both perspectives are thoroughly interdependent, but they are often presented as distinct and opposed to each other. One of the main aims of this volume is to show just how they are related, and how they form a deeply entangled subject that continues to shape and affect the notion of modernity in Africa.

Transport labour has been a fundamental feature in every economic system and in every epoch of humanity worldwide. This volume considers the history of labour in transport from 1750 to 1950, in the context of globalisation and the evolution of capitalism. The nine articles presented in this collective work span these two centuries and address a largely neglected aspect of labour history in transport: the stories from the Global South (Africa, Asia and Latin America). The transport sectors touched upon in these studies are wide-ranging, encompassing a variety of workers, from porters to boatmen in India, from Mongolian caravanners to Filipino rickshaw drivers, from truck drivers to postal runners in west Africa, from wage-earning slave porters to immigrant railway workers in the cities of Brazil. These histories from the South are a constitutive part of the global history of labour.
