Illegal Immigrant in the Land of Milk and Honey
Ssuuna Golooba, a former freelance photojournalist in Uganda, presents the raw reality of leaving his homeland. This young and ambitious traveller, like Puss in Boots, went in search of a Europe paved with gold but discovered instead poverty, discrimination and ever-increasing red tape. For more than seven years, Ssuuna lived in the Netherlands and Germany in the anonymity of an illegal migrant. He survived on the meagre income he generated by doing irregular cleaning jobs. In 2005, Ssuuna Golooba was in the Netherlands when a fire broke out at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, in which eleven illegal migrants died. Many more were injured. This tragic event was a turning point in Ssuuna’s perception of Europe. These are raw impressions of what you would rather not know about Europe.

Dutch visions of the exotic alternate with foreign views of the Netherlands"--Inside back cover.
Argonauts of West Africa
"Argonauts of West Africa examines the paradoxes of kinship in the lives of unauthorized African migrants as they struggle for mobility, employment, and citizenship in Europe. In a rapidly changing and highly precarious context, migrants turn to kinship in search of security, stability, and predictability. Through the exchange of identity documents, assistance in obtaining such documentation, marriage, or cohabitation, new kinship dynamics are continually made and remade to navigate the shifting demands of European states. These new kinship relations, however, often prove unreliable, taking on new, unexpected dynamics in the face of codependency; they become more difficult to control than th...

Foreign Policy in Post-Genocide Rwanda
This book examines how Rwandan elites within the government, private sector and civil society perceive the nation’s political and economic relationship with the international community. Using testimonies and interviews of Rwandan political, military and economic leaders, and bureaucrats, this book examines the intersubjective beliefs that formulate how Rwanda engages with the international community. The book presents and analyses three primary intersubjective themes: historical and possible future abandonment of Rwanda; implementing an ideology of agaciro to promote self-respect, dignity and self-reliance for state security and economic development; and the belief in the government’s obligation to promote human security for those who identify as ‘Rwandan’. These perceptions help us understand how post-genocide Rwanda engages with the international community in the pursuit of state security, economic development and to prevent a future genocide. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of African politics and international relations as well as the politics of post-genocide states.
