| book description |

This volume explores the multiple meanings and implications of lobola in Southern Africa. The payment ofÂ lobola (often controversially translated as â€˜bridewealthâ€™) is an entrenched practice in most societies in Southern Africa. Although having a long tradition, of late there have been voices questioning its relevance in contemporary times while others vehemently defend the practice. This book brings together a range of scholars from different academic disciplines, national contexts, institutions, genders, and ethnic backgrounds to debate the relevance of lobola in contemporary southern African communities for gender equality.
