Description
Migration and state formation after colonialism: the Eritrean experience explores the complex relationships between Africa and Europe, both historically and in contemporary times. This study focuses on the experiences of migrants from Eritrea and other African countries seeking entry to Europe.
The book examines the factors driving migration within Africa and out of Africa, including economic underdevelopment, unsustainable land policies, corruption, and lack of democratic rule. It also investigates how these issues are linked to the precarious processes involved in state formation and nation-building.
