Opis

In cities throughout Africa, local inhabitants live alongside large populations of "strangers." Bruce Whitehouse explores the condition of stranger-hood for residents who have come from the West African Sahel to settle in Brazzaville, Congo. Whitehouse considers how these migrants live simultaneously inside and outside of Congolese society as merchants, as Muslims in a predominantly non-Muslim society, and as parents seeking to instil in their children the customs of their communities of origin. Migrants and Strangers in an African City challenges Pan-Africanist ideas of trans-nationalism and diaspora in today's globalized world.
