Managing the monster
urban waste and governance in Africa
by Adepoju G. Onibokun
"Managing the Monster critically examines urban governance in Africa, with particular reference to the serious problems and challenges posed by waste management. It describes, compares, and appraises the situations in Abidjan, Dar es Salaam, Ibadan, and Johannesburg, characterizing typical forms of governance and their successes and failures in dealing with the critical problem of mounting urban waste.
It will interest researchers, academics, and students in African studies and urban planning; donor organizations worldwide working on urban issues; policymakers, municipal engineers, city managers, and urban planners, especially in Africa; and environmental and civic NGOs."--BOOK JACKET.
