520    This book explores the relationship between plantation 
       labour and gender in Africa. Such a study is the more 
       opportune because most of the existing works on plantation
       labour in Africa seem to have either under-studied or even
       ignored the changing conceptions of gender on the 
       continent in recent times. One of the book's major 
       concerns is to demonstrate that the introduction of 
       plantation labour during colonial rule in Africa has had 
       significant consequences for gender roles and relations 
       within and beyond the capitalist labour process. The book 
       focuses on two tea estates in Anglophone Cameroon.
