- Summary:
- "He came as a cousin and left as a gendarme." This anecdote expresses the identity paradox in the Comoros and the 'migration' drama that has been happening in the Archipelago since the arbitrary introduction of the Balladur Visa in 1995. Mayotte that is 'officially' French has been labelled "the biggest marine graveyard in the world". How can works of imagination on "migration" from Anjouan to Mayotte constitute a kind of collective social therapy and social intervention? This book answers this question (among others) by studying 18 works, and combining literary studies with anthropology, sociology, history and international law"-- Provided by publisher.
