In the Shadow of the European Fortress. Image of the West among Africans in Guinea-Bissau
The book, based on anthropological fieldwork in Guinea-Bissau, explores the perception of the West by Africans. The West, or Europe, plays a dominant role in the collective imagination of Guineans. Migration to Europe is a common dream as its image is idealized. In contrast to much of the recent optimistic literature on globalisation, the author draws attention to cultural domination, a symbolic power of the image of the West.
Keywords: anthropological fieldwork, Africans, Guineans, migration to Europe, image of the West, Refugees.
