Neoliberal Bandwagonism

The book explores the intricate relationship between civil society and the politics of belonging in Africa, challenging the simplistic views held by neoliberal discourse. It argues that ethno-regional associations play a crucial role in civil society, often overshadowing conventional organizations. Through a case study of Cameroon, the author highlights how the pervasive politics of belonging influences various aspects of associational life, urging a reevaluation of existing assumptions about civil society to better reflect African realities.
