Overview

The Ugandan economy was once solidly based on the export of cash crops such as coffee and cotton. The economic crisis and the civil war in the 1970s and 1980s profoundly changed the agricultural economy. Money is the True Friend deals with the emergence of de-regulated food markets for maize in Eastern Uganda. The central problem illuminated in the book is the relationship between the liberalization for food marketing and the development of a new social and cultural practice -- a morality -- for trading that is both shaped by and shapes the marketing opportunities for the participating traders.
