{"product_id":"bush-bound-paolo-gaibazzi-9781782387794","title":"Bush Bound: Young Men and Rural Permanence in Migrant West Africa","description":"\u003cp\u003e Whereas most studies of migration focus on movement, this book examines the experience of staying put. It looks at young men living in a Soninke-speaking village in Gambia who, although eager to travel abroad for money and experience, settle as farmers, heads of families, businessmen, civic activists, or, alternatively, as unemployed, demoted youth. Those who stay do so not only because of financial and legal limitations, but also because of pressures to maintain family and social bases in the Gambia valley. 'Stayers' thus enable migrants to migrate, while ensuring the activities and values attached to rural life are passed on to the future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paolo Gaibazzi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 178238779X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781782387794\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2016","brand":"Paolo Gaibazzi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44213253439743,"sku":"9781782387794","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_95c8dae6-dcd4-42b9-89b3-f5fd527cfd84.jpg?v=1692112870","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bush-bound-paolo-gaibazzi-9781782387794","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
