Bruce Whitehouse explores the condition of strangerhood 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 instill in their children the customs of their communities of origin. Migrants and Strangers in an African City challenges Pan-Africanist ideas of transnationalism and diaspora in today's globalized world. 000455346 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000455346 650_0 $$aWest Africans$$zCongo (Brazzaville)$$xSocial conditions. 000455346 650_0 $$aTransnationalism$$xSocial aspects. 000455346 651_0 $$aCongo (Brazzaville)$$xEmigration and immigration$$xHistory. 000455346 651_0 $$aCongo (Brazzaville)$$xCommerce. 000455346 651_0 $$aCongo (Brazzaville)$$xReligion. 000455346 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000455346 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aWhitehouse, Bruce, 1971-$$tMigrants and strangers in an African city.$$dBloomington : Indiana University Press, c2012$$z9780253000811$$z9780253000828$$w(DLC) 2011040330$$w(OCoLC)712119588 000455346 8520_ $$bacq 000455346 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000455346 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=816826$$zOnline Access 000455346 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:455346$$pGLOBAL_SET 000455346 980__ $$aEBOOK 000455346 980__ $$aBIB 000455346 982__ $$aEbook 000455346 983__ $$aOnline
