Cosmopolitanism and its aftermath
This article explores the rise and fall of Greek and Turkish business and commerce in Alexandria, Egypt. As the existing literature alerts us, shifting forms of colonial rule made for a complex and multifaceted cosmopolitanism, in which each community secured a distinct economic space. In part, this was due to the insertion of Alexandria into the growing world economy of the nineteenth century, which allowed for both the rise of modern businesses…
The Formal and Informal Regulation of Labor in AI
The spread of AI technologies has had far reaching consequences for work and employment regulation around the world. This conceptual paper explores the case of AI and formal and informal regulation in southern and east Africa, according particular attention to the cases of South Africa and Kenya. Within the region, governments seem primarily concerned with the potential of AI to promote economic diversification, rather than the protection of empl…
Sovereign Wealth Funds
This chapter introduces sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) and where they stand in the world of state capitalism. SWFs are gradually becoming leading participants in the alternative investor ecosystem, and are another expression of state capitalism. This chapter highlights the challenges of categorizing state investment funds, and argue that what sets SWFs apart is an ostensibly inter-generational savings focus. Through the usage of examples, we highl…
Safety and health before and after Marikana
Mine and worker Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) remains crucial given the historically dismal record of fatalities and accidents in mining in South Africa. OHS also played a central role in the resurgence of trade unionism of black South African mineworkers in the 1980s. While the OHS literature has the workplace as its predominant focus, this article explores three factors relating to conditions external to and beyond mining production: sub…

Increasing attention is being paid to contextual circumstances, with attention shifting to the relationship between institutions and HRM practice, particularly drawing on the literature on comparative capitalisms and rational hierarchical accounts. This chapter further extends reflections on cultural and institutional factors influencing HRM in…

The Practice of HRM in Africa in Comparative Perspective
Images of Illegalized Immigration
Illegalized immigration is a highly iconic topic. The public perception of the current regime for mobility is profoundly shaped by visual and verbal images. As the issue of illegalized immigration is gaining increasing political momentum, the authors feel it is a well-warranted undertaking to analyze the role of images in the creation of illegalization. Their aim is to trace the visual processes that produce these very categories. The authors aim…
