Social integration of immigrants in sub-Saharan African communities: challenges and prospects is an impressive analysis of the state of social integration in Africa and South Africa in the era of massmigration by the continent's population. It is an eye-opening account of the challenges that African immigrants face when they move from their countries of origin to other African countries in search of greener pastures. Contributions in the book open-up new ideas and questions for debate. Instead of taking the conventional modes of disciplinary endeavour as given, it invites readers to think about how social integration can be implemented differently, ask different types of questions, and seek alternative answers to the concept, both for the present and for the future. While the book places strong emphasis on challenges and prospects of social integration, it is also about the relationship between immigrants and local South African as neighbours in the neighbourhoods. It is also about the implications of excluding immigrants from basic services and resources in host communities. It is about co-existence, peace and unifying the people of Africa under Ubuntu.
