Samenvatting

"Sunny Boy": Drivers, Cars, and Highlife in Ghana. Bus and truck drivers in Ghana are cultural heroes, privileged to travel back and forth between villages and cities; however, their financial position remains tenuous. Here, drivers' dreams and concerns are examined via analysis of the slogans prominently displayed on their vehicles, ranging from the humorous to the religious. Special attention is given to the drivers' life as popularized in a current song. 8 Photographs, 18 References. M. Meeks
