CALIFORNIA SERIES IN PUBLIC ANTHROPOLOGY

The California Series in Public Anthropology emphasizes the anthropologists role as an engaged intellectual. It continues anthropologys commitment to being an ethnographic witness, to describing, in human terms, how life is lived beyond the borders of many readers experiences. But it also adds a commitment, through ethnography, to reframing the terms of public debatetransforming received, accepted understandings of social issues with new insights, new framings.

Acknowledgments

A great many people and institutions have helped make this book possible, too numerous to mention here.

First of all, I am very grateful to the young repatriates of the Dakar neighborhood I call Yongor for welcoming me despite their difficult circumstances and for setting my whole project on a new track. I am greatly indebted to all the migrants who have shared their stories with me, in Senegal, Mali, Morocco, and Spain: protecting their identities prevents me from mentioning them by name here.

In Ceuta, I am indebted to Pepi Galvn, without whose hospitality, kindness, and help my experience in the city would have been completely different. I am also grateful to the director of the enclaves migrant reception center and its workers for receiving me, as well as to the Spanish Red Cross staff and volunteers in Ceuta.

A great many journalists, aid workers, academics, and activists have helped shape this project. While many of them will not be mentioned here by name in order to safeguard anonymity, I do wish to thank Melanie Grtner and Max Hirzel for their great collegiality; Pepe Naranjo and Nicols Castellano for their contacts and inspiration; and Papa Demba Fall for receiving me at lInstitut Fondamental dAfrique Noire in Dakar. Among the numerous organizations that have helped make this research possible, I wish to extend special thanks to the team at Aracem for their warm welcome in Bamako. I am also thankful to the Spanish Guardia Civil and the Senegalese border police for having received me on numerous visits.
