Short description:

Engaging first-hand with small traders and the Somali communities in Khayelitsha, Kraaifontein and Philippi, Vanya Gastrow investigates the predicament of social and political outcasts who belong neither to the elite nor the common people, and who are frequently the focus of xenophobic anger.

Long description:
Citizen and Pariah explores the fragility of law, pluralism and democracy in South Africa by investigating Somali informal shopkeepers? experiences of crime, justice and regulation in the country. Through a narrative account of their local experiences, the book sheds light on the legal and political predicaments they face.
