Managing African Portugal

The Citizen-Migrant Distinction

Beschreibung

""Managing African Portugal" is a moving ethnography of the fraught but persistent lives of Cape Verdean peixeiras (fishmongers) caught between the cultural logics of citizenship, remittances, and migrant labor. But it is also a searing account of how state-organized anti-racist campaigns, meant to free citizens like the peixeiras from racial violence, can be one of the means of locking them into new forms of class violence."--Elizabeth A. Povinelli, author of "The Empire of Love: Toward a Theory of Intimacy, Genealogy, and Carnality"
