DESCRIPTION:Between the City and the Countryside: Centering Accumulation i
 n African Studies \n\nThinking beyond clear-cut rural-urban divides\, this
  presentation is a call for centring accumulation in the study of African 
 Cities\, and developing respective theoretical concepts. “Accumulation
 ” is much more than “growth” or “development”\, which cloud the 
 processes through which value is created and/or distributed and how they i
 nteract with power relations. “Accumulation” helps us center political
  economy questions: who owns what\, who does what and why\, who gets what 
  and what do they do with it – in and beyond Africa. It allows us ground
 ing these questions in larger relations and social structures that often t
 ranscend the domain of the locale\, often amounting to global entanglement
 s (global commodity chains\; algorithmic infrastructures etc.). Debates on
  accumulation in Africa also offer the opportunity to link with global deb
 ates on increasing wealth divides\, and the rise of the rentier economy.
