DOWNLOAD EBOOKRafiki means friend in Kiswahili language, which is spoken in a large part of Africa. The book reflects the authors own way of detailing the importance of cooperation for Indian managers in international business as part of his teaching in MBA class. It is full of anecdotal evidence that have made it an articulate polemic and provide a counterintuitive look toward understanding the business environment. Biswajit has written a fascinating book. He takes an unusual path, and with warmth and accessibility weaves stories and travel adventures around a serious but humanized discussion of crucial economic and social issues. The author treats us to a vividly narrated reminder of the extraordinary value of diversity and the importance of learning from the realities of others. This rich and readable chronicle will be enjoyed by many. - Patrick Low, Vice President of Research, Fung Global Institute, Hong Kong and Former Chief Economist of the World Trade Organization Biswajit whips up a wonderful plate of cross country experiences. The fast paced book illustrates the perils of attaching labels like emerging market economies that lull MNCs to ignore the rich diversity and consequent opportunity these countries offer. - Subhomoy Bhattacharjee, Deputy Editor, Indian Express My World with Rafiki is a powerful narrative with opinions and doubts that ignite alternative thinking and discernment about the contemporary world. A superb mix of stories and theories, the breathtaking speed of commentary and lively anecdotes keep you wondering for the next surprise. - Bruno Jetin, Researcher, Institute for Research on Contemporary Southeast Asia, Bangkok and Associate Professor, University Paris Nord Sorbonne, Paris

Creative Hustling

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe first book-length study of Nairobi-based female filmmakers—and how their dogged pursuit of opportunities, innovation, and cultural support is defining an industry. Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, is home to something extraordinary and unlikely: in this city, the most critically acclaimed filmmakers—both directors and producers—are women. Yet, across the globe, women make up less than 10 percent of film directors. In Creative Hustling, Robin Steedman takes a closer look at these remarkable women filmmakers, viewing them not only as auteurs, but also as entrepreneurs, who are taking the lead in creating a vibrant, and atypical, screen media industry. To understand their achievement, Steedman theorizes hustling as not only a practice born out of necessity but also an inventive labor in its own right—one that can create new spaces of community by carving new entrepreneurial pathways. Through original empirical field research gathered over eight months in Nairobi, Steedman describes how female filmmakers go about trying to create their films, as well as the challenges they face in distributing those films in their local market. Along the way, she traces the history of the industry over the last fifteen years, the lack of state support for these filmmakers’ undertakings, the low social standing of the profession, and the transnational conflicts that arise when Euro-American funding is at the heart of Kenyan cinema. Creative Hustling is a major contribution to the task of de-Westernizing media industry studies, imparting important lessons about what it takes to create and distribute creative work in a global age increasingly marked by uncertain work.
