Reseña del libro "Landscaping Africa. The Politics of Place and Belonging in Senegal"

How has European imperialism (re)made the world? How can we understand this long process and its consequences in ways that capture both the materiality and the subjectivity of political domination? Inspired by Frantz Fanon's insight that colonization entails the (re)crafting of geographic space, Landscaping Africa develops the concept of "landscaping" to explore the enduring global impact of European imperialism. Written by an Indigenous anthropologist, this book also demonstrates how Indigenous peoples, in Africa and beyond, are building upon and tearing apart European colonial projects. Michael C. Lambert probes three cases of landscaping involving the West African nation of Senegal: the forging of an international border between Senegal and Mauritania, the imposition of rural-urban distinctions, and the deployment of immigration policy to divide the Global North and South. This book illuminates how borders and boundaries are made, and made meaningful, through domination, resistance, and struggles over belonging.
