Beschreibung
“Transnational social spaces” have emerged in recent years as a research area within migration
and area studies. This volume is about African social spaces with examples of Central and
Western Africa as well as of African – European relations. Authors from different disciplines
like anthropology, geography, political and educational sciences outline their interpretations
of transnational social spaces, based on theoretical and empirical work within a wider
research project at the University of Hamburg about contemporary transformations of African
societies.
