Produktinformationen "The Making of Citizenship"
Citizenship is a process in motion. When empires crumbled and nation-states arose, subjects became citizens. Independence in East Africa brought the transition from imperial to national citizenship. And therefore, those who had arrived in East Africa via imperial channels of migration had to navigate a new world. Asians in Tanzania and Uganda often found themselves out of place and out of space as their social and economic opportunities were shrinking. This book compares the process of citizenship making in 1960s Tanzania and Uganda and how it enabled African politicians to implement more stringent migration, economic policy in a changing global context of migration systems and how finally this narrowing of national space culminated in the expulsion of the Asian minority from Uganda in 1972.
