The book counterbalances an earlier scholarly preoccupation with Tuareg nobility by zoning in on two inferior social status groups, the Bellah-Iklan and free-born vassals, which have been neglected in conventional accounts of Tuareg society. By offering a multi-layered analysis of social status and identity formation in the diaspora, it pleads for a more dynamic understanding of Tuareg socio-political hierarchies. Analyzing in detail how both status groups rely on moralizing labels and racial stereotyping to reformulate their own social and ethnic identity, the study highlights refugees' aspirations and capacities to remake their imaginary and material worlds in the face of adverse and often deeply humiliating living conditions. The book provides vital insights for refugee studies and for scholarly debates on ethnicity, social identity formation, and memory politics.“The Truth about the Desert” “The Truth about the Desert” TuaregsNigerTuaregs306.089933Diallo Souleymane1261437NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910476934203321The Truth about the Desert”2937296UNINA01803oam 2200505 450 991071375380332120200731093323.0(CKB)5470000002504146(OCoLC)974647360(OCoLC)995470000002504146(EXLCZ)99547000000250414620170306d1988 ua 0engurbn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierSurface-water hydrology of Hay Creek watershed, Montana, and West Branch Antelope Creek watershed, North Dakota /by Douglas G.
