Commerce as Politics by Sean M Maliehe
This is the first comprehensive economic history of the Basotho people of Southern Africa and spans from the 1820s to the present day. The book documents what the Basotho have done on their own account, focusing on their systematic exclusion from trade and their political efforts to insert themselves into their country's commerce.“I think very highly of this book … I think it will be highly cited and important, partly because there has been so little economic history of Lesotho but also because of the quality of the scholarship” • Colin Hoag, Smith College
