Download or read book Etat individus et r seaux dans les migrations africaines written by Luc Sindjoun and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2005 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suivant le discours convenu en matière de migrations, la mise en mouvement des individus et des groupes d'origine africaine s'effectue du Nord vers le Sud. Cette cardinalisation des migrations occulte la prise en considération de l'Afrique comme un continent de mouvement ; la sédentarisation des personnes et des groupes, consécutive à la colonisation, et à l'apparition de l'État moderne en Afrique n'ont pas mis fin à la permanence des flux migratoires qui trahissent la densité et la complexité des relations entre l'État, les individus et les réseaux. C'est dans le cadre du triangle magique États - Individus - Réseaux qu'il faut comprendre les migrations africaines. En effet, les projets individuels de migration subissent, d'une part, l'influence directe ou indirecte des réseaux tantôt ethniques, tantôt religieux ; d'autre part, ils sont bricolés et mis en œuvre en tenant compte de l'État comme illusion ou réalité de contrôle des entrées et des sorties dans son territoire, comme fabricant des identités ou des statuts et pôle d'identification. Étudier les migrations en Afrique permet de montrer l'intégration humaine et sociale du continent et de revisiter les débats sur la crise de l'État en Afrique, sur l'opposition individus/États ou encore individus/groupes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les diverses contributions illustrent de quelle façon plusieurs méthodes peuvent contribuer à identifier les migrations en Afrique dans des environnements peu propices à la recherche. Elles montrent comment ces méthodes peuvent aider à obtenir de précieuses données empiriques dans des contextes où manque un cadre d'échantillonage adapté, et où il est difficile d'identifier et d'approcher les populations. L'ouvrage aborde aussi des questions d'ordres méthodologique et épistémologique.

Download or read book The Challenge of the Threshold written by Jocelyne Streiff-Fenart and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The containment policies aimed at regulating immigration flows towards Europe and emerging economies like South Africa have profoundly altered the dynamics of migration in Africa. Drawing on original empirical research, this volume explores the notion of threshold as an operative concept to envisage in turn: the discursive frameworks of containment policies, the challenges to local spaces and their equilibrium, and finally, the sense of liminality experienced by migrants caught in those situations.
Download or read book Regimes of Mobility written by Noel Salazar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobility studies emerged from a postmodern moment in which global ‘flows’ of capital, people and objects were increasingly noted and celebrated. Within this new scholarship, categories of migrancy are all seen through the same analytical lens. This book builds on, as well as critiques, past and present studies of mobility. In so doing, it challenges conceptual orientations built on binaries of difference that have impeded analyses of the interrelationship between mobility and stasis. These include methodological nationalism, which counterpoises concepts of internal and international movement and native and foreigner, and consequently normalises stasis. Instead, the book proposes a ‘regimes of mobility’ framework that addresses the relationships between mobility and immobility, localisation and transnational connection, experiences and imaginaries of migration, and rootedness and cosmopolitan openness. Within this framework and its emphasis on social fields of differential power, the various contributors to this collection ethnographically explore the disparities, inequalities, racialised representations and national mythscapes that facilitate and legitimate differential mobility and fixity. Although they examine nation-state building processes, the anthropological analysis is not confined by national boundaries. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies.
Download or read book Human Security written by Benny Teh Cheng Guan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-02 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human security is becoming increasingly pronounced in recent years due to changes in the security landscape of world politics. Yet, inter-state relations have continued to dominate security concerns in East Asia. This has, unfortunately, eluded the broader understanding of issues and challenges facing the peoples of East Asia. Home to nations with rapid economic growth and development, East Asia is at the core of what some individuals have termed as the coming Asian Century. Years of economic liberalization and exposure to globalization have permitted the region to achieve high levels of interconnectedness from within and without in unprecedented ways. This has certainly reduced state control and opened up spaces for cross-border human activities. While economic wealth have increased substantially over the years, it has also brought about bigger income disparities, unsustainable safety nets and a surge in social problems from health issues to migratory concerns that threaten the safety and well-being of individuals. Human Security: Securing East Asia’s Future timely examines the fundamental issues causing human insecurities and evaluates the extent of which human security plays a role at the state and regional levels. Covering the different areas of threats to humans and applying case study materials, this volume provides an intellectual mix of perspectives that captures the relationship between people, state and region. This book will be of interest to those studying traditional and non-traditional security/threats, Asian human development and critical policy analysis.
Download or read book Xenophobia Nativism and Pan Africanism in 21st Century Africa written by Sabella Ogbobode Abidde and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume systematically analyzes the connection between xenophobia, nativism, and Pan-Africanism. It situates attacks on black Africans by fellow black Africans within the context of ideals such as Pan-Africanism and Ubuntu, which emphasize unity. The book straddles a range of social science perspectives to explain why attacks on foreign nationals in Africa usually entail attacks on black foreign nationals. Written by an international and interdisciplinary team of scholars, the book is divided into four sections that each explain a different facet of this complicated relationship. Section One discusses the history of colonialism and apartheid and their relationship to xenophobia. Section Two critically evaluates Pan-Africanism as a concept and as a practice in 21st century Africa. Section Three presents case studies on xenophobia in contemporary Africa. Section Four similarly discusses cases of nativism. Addressing a complex issue in contemporary African politics, this volume will be of use to students and scholars interested in African studies, African politics, human rights, migration, history, law, and development economics.

Download or read book Child Migration in Africa written by Iman Hashim and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-02-10 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child Migration in Africa explores the mobility of children without their parents within West Africa. Drawing on the experiences of children from rural Burkina Faso and Ghana, the book provides rich material on the circumstances of children's voluntary migration and their experiences of it. Their accounts challenge the normative ideals of what a 'good' childhood is, which often underlie public debates about children's migration, education and work in developing countries. The comparative study of Burkina Faso and Ghana highlights that social networks operate in ways that can be both enabling and constraining for young migrants, as can cultural views on age- and gender-appropriate behaviour. The book questions easily made assumptions regarding children's experiences when migrating independently of their parents and contributes to analytical and cross-cultural understandings of childhood. Part of the groundbreaking Africa Now series, Child Migration in Africa is an important and timely contribution to an under-researched area.
