- CRAFTING A BETTER FUTURE IN LIBERIA. Hustling and Associational Life in Post-War Monrovia Andrea Kaufmann Antropología war post urban Liberia Monrovia Despite post-war reconstruction, Monrovia is an insecure, uncertain city. Many people are «hustling», an emic term for insecure income-generating activities. «Hustlers» are often part of associations. Associations strengthen identities, and form social relationships and solidarities. They f ll the gap of war-af ected social relationships, and contribute to social security, solidarity and integrate the marginalized. This article shows how social imaginaries serve as motor of change, and how associational life shapes social spaces as islands of certainty amidst uncertainty. 2017 artículo científico 2813-5237 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=664773209004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6647 Swiss Journal of Sociocultural Anthropology application/pdf Universität Bern Swiss Journal of Sociocultural Anthropology (Suiza) Vol.22
