Migration and Africa: On the urgent need to think beyond the nation-state
My latest publication on Pambazuka!
Abstract:
European powers imposed the nation-state on Africa through colonialism. But even after African independencies, mainstream discourses and government policies have amplified the idea that sedentariness and the state are the only acceptable mode of modernity. Migration is portrayed as a menace to the societies where the migrants wish to settle

EU AND AFRICAN MIGRANTS: WHY THINGS ARE GETTING WORSE (FOR MIGRANTS)
Here you will find the link to my article which has been recently published on Wardheernews.com
In the essay, I argue that reaching Europe through the sea crossing to Lampedusa is getting more and more dangerous, both for the increasing patrol activities of European Union's FRONTEX and for the specific patterns of action of criminal organisations trafficking human beings between Africa and Europe.

PARTICIPATION TO AMEC'S CONFERENCE, PRETORIA.
I have recently participated to a very interesting conference organised by the Afro-Middle East Centre in Pretoria, South Africa (5-6 November 2013). The conference was titled "In whose interests? Exploring Middle East Involvement in Africa"
The theme of the conference was the political-economical involvement of Middle East in Africa in a broad sense. A very fresh topic since much of what has been dealt with during the conference are on-going phenomena. My contribution focused on Saudi Arabia's agenda: however, I have decided to focus on those which I have called side effects, to show that cooperation has also its dark, unpredictable aspects that we have to take into account. In my provisional paper, I have thus analysed the link existing between Saudi involvement and the rise of Islamism in Somalia and Mali.
Have a look to my paper: "Exploiting the religious link: Saudi Agenda in Africa and its impact in Somalia and Mali", if you like, here:
