This Ph.D. Research is the result of an ethnographic research on the migratory trajectories of some Senegalese men living in northern Italy. The choice of Senegal is particularly interesting, especially because of the impressive scientific scholarship produced during the last decades on the mobility experiences of Senegalese citizens to European countries. The majority of the works produced until now on this national community in Italy has explored especially the living and working conditions of Senegalese migrants living abroad, as well as they create and manage associations or act as highly mobile transnational social actors. More recently, other researches have explored aspects related to gender issues.
Differently, the topic of sexuality of Senegalese migrants is still understudied, therefore this thesis analyses the experiences of some Senegalese men who express non-normative forms of masculinity and sexuality, namely gender expressions that bypass or betray the socio-normative model represented by heterosexuality. The fieldwork carried out for this research explores how these men manage their masculinities and sexualities in Italy, Senegal or other countries in which they move. A special attention has been given to timing, in order to understand whether and to what extent they have been redefined from pre-migratory and post-migratory period. The collected data illustrate how some biographical factors (age, gender class, socio-legal status, language skills/gaps, socio-cultural capital) could influence their migratory trajectories and, simultaneously, the social positionalities they occupy in the transnational arena (workers, students, asylum seekers, refugees, sex workers, undocumented people), without neglecting the ways they use to express their sexuality.
The research focuses on the everyday strategies that these Senegalese migrants deploy, choosing according to specific situations whether confirm or redefine their transnational image of migrant men living abroad. In some contexts, the participants to this research are interested in adapting to dominant social expectations transmitted by family members or other compatriots, whereas in other contexts they feel free to express more easily their non-normative sexuality through creative and flexible strategies that vary according to social contexts in which they find themselves or people they are in touch with or connected to.
In conclusion, the thesis analyses limits and possibilities of these migrants' agency and their ability to manage bonds and belongings through the borders. The fieldwork has been carried out between 2015 and 2017 through qualitative research methodologies (archive research, interviews, ethnographic observations, digital ethnography) in Italy and Senegal. The collected data have been analysed creating a dialogue between anthropology, sociology, migration studies, men studies and queer studies.Maschilità divergenti.

Questa ricerca di dottorato è il frutto di una ricerca etnografica sulle traiettorie migratorie di alcuni uomini senegalesi residenti in nord Italia. La scelta del Senegal è di particolare interesse, soprattutto considerando la notevole produzione scientifica che vi è stata nel corso degli ultimi decenni sulle esperienze di mobilità di cittadini senegalesi verso Paesi europei. La maggior parte dei lavori finora prodotti su questa comunità nazionale in Italia ha indagato soprattutto le condizioni di vita e di lavoro dei migranti senegalesi all'estero, nonché le loro forme di associazionismo e il loro essere agenti transnazionali altamente mobili, mentre più recentemente altre ricerche hanno esplorato aspetti relativi a questioni di genere.
Diversamente, il tema della sessualità delle persone migranti senegalesi è ancora poco esplorato, pertanto questo lavoro analizza le esperienze di alcuni uomini senegalesi che esprimono forme di maschilità e di sessualità in senso non eteronormativo, ovvero in modalità che aggirano o tradiscono il modello socio-normativo rappresentato dall'eterosessualità. Il lavoro di campo realizzato per questa ricerca esplora come tali soggetti mettono in gioco queste maschilità e sessualità non normative in Italia, in Senegal o in altri Paesi in cui si trovano a spostarsi. Un'attenzione particolare è data al fattore-tempo, ovvero al comprendere se e in che misura si siano ridefinite dal periodo pre-migratorio a quello post-migratorio. I dati emersi dalla ricerca mostrano come alcuni fattori biografici (età, genere, classe, status socio-legale, abilità/difficoltà linguistiche, capitale socio-culturale) possano influenzare le loro traiettorie migratorie e, parallelamente, i posizionamenti sociali che questi uomini occupano nel campo transnazionale (lavoratori, studenti, richiedenti asilo, rifugiati, sex worker o senza documenti), nonché i modi attraverso i quali esprimono la loro sessualità.
La ricerca rivolge la sua attenzione alle strategie quotidiane che tali migranti senegalesi mettono in gioco, scegliendo situazionalmente se confermare o ridefinire la loro immagine transnazionale di uomini migranti residenti all'estero. In certi contesti, i partecipanti alla ricerca sono interessati di adattarsi alle aspettative sociali dominanti veicolate da famigliari o altri connazionali, mentre in altri contesti si sentono di poter esprimere più liberamente la propria sessualità non normativa attraverso strategie, al tempo stesso creative e flessibili, che variano in rapporto ai contesti sociali in cui si trovano e alle persone con cui sono in contatto o a cui si rapportano.
In conclusione, la tesi analizza limiti e possibilità dell'agency di questi migranti e la loro capacità di gestire legami e appartenenze oltre i confini. La ricerca sul campo si è svolta tra il 2015 e il 2017 ricorrendo a metodologie di ricerca qualitative (ricerca di archivio, interviste, osservazioni etnografiche, digital ethnography) tra Italia e Senegal. I risultati raccolti sono stati analizzati mettendo in dialogo diversi campi di studio, quali antropologia, sociologia, men studies e queer studies e studi sui processi migratori

Dany Laferrière exilé au « Pays sans chapeau »
No full textNous proposons d’interroger le paradigme de l’exil tel que décliné dans la littérature de la diaspora haïtienne francophone. La réflexion s’articule principalement autour d’une analyse à la fois thématique et formelle de Pays sans chapeau (1996), roman de Dany Laferrière. Celui-ci retrace le retour d’un narrateur vers son île d’origine, qu’il a désertée vingt ans plus tôt. Dans cette oeuvre, le motif de l’exil, trop ancré dans l’imaginaire collectif et le vécu haïtiens, n’est plus guère susceptible de métaphorisation. Il résulte de ce fait que l’exploitation d’un tel motif dans la littérature romanesque peut avoir pour conséquence de faire encourir à l’écrivain lui-même le risque d’une condamnation au silence et d’une assignation au mutisme.Our purpose here is to reflect on the paradigm of exile as it is stated in the literature of the French Haitian diaspora. The study focuses mainly on a thematic and formal analysis of Dany Laferrière’s novel Pays sans chapeau [Country without a Hat] (1996). The author describes the return of a narrator to his native island after an absence of twenty years. In this novel, the motif of exile, too deeply anchored in the collective imagination and experience of Haitians, is no longer subject to metaphorization. Thus, the use of such a motif in fiction may result in the author himself being condemned to silence

Rencana Kebijakan dan Program Pembangunan Hortikultura Lahan Kering untuk Provinsi Sumatera Utara: Sudah Tepatkah?
No full textConsumption of fruits and vegetables increases the demand of horticultural commodities but increasing of horticultural production is smaller than increasing of its demand so that imports are necessary to fill in these consumption needs. The government in 2019 plans horticultural commodities for every province in Indonesia. The objectives of this study were (1) to analyze superior horticultural commodities in North Sumatra Province, (2) to analyze the specialist and localization of horticultural commodities in North Sumatra, and (3) to compare priority horticultural commodities from the analysis results with government policy plans. Secondary data used in this study were from 2017 - 2019. The analytical tools used were Location Quotient (LQ), Specialization Quotient (SQ), and Localization Quotient (LoQ). The results showed (1) superior dryland horticultural commodities were dominated by shallots, chilies, mangoes, durian, papaya, and galangal in North Tapanuli, Toba Samosir, and Dairi Regencies, (2) several dryland horticultural commodities have a comparative advantage and its production is not localized, such as mango, durian, and chili in Batubara and Labuhan Batu Selatan Regencies, and (3) fifty percent of dry land horticultural commodities were priority commodities.Konsumsi buah-buahan dan sayuran meningkatkan permintaan komoditas hortikultura tetapi pertambahan produksi komoditas hortikultura lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan pertambahan permintaannya, sehingga perlu dilakukan impor untuk memenuhi kebutuhan konsumsi tersebut. Pemerintah pada tahun 2019 merencanakan komoditas hortikultura untuk setiap provinsi di Indonesia. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu menganalisis komoditas hortikultura unggulan lahan kering di Provinsi Sumatera Utara, menganalisis spesialisasi dan lokalisasi komoditas hortikultura lahan kering di Sumatera Utara, dan membandingkan komoditas hortikultura prioritas lahan kering di Provinsi Sumatera Utara. Data sekunder yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini mulai dari tahun 2017 – 2019. Analisis data yang digunakan yaitu Location Quotient (LQ), Spesialization Quotient (SQ) dan Localization Quotient (LoQ). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan komoditas hortikultura unggulan lahan kering didominasi oleh bawang merah, cabai, mangga, durian, pepaya, dan lengkuas di Kabupaten Tapanuli Utara, Toba Samosir, dan Dairi. Ada beberapa komoditas hortikultura lahan kering memiliki keunggulan komparatif dan produksinya tidak terlokalisasi seperti komoditas mangga, durian dan cabai di Kabupaten Batu Bara dan Labuhan Batu Selatan, sehingga lima puluh persen komoditas hortikultura lahan kering menjadi komoditas prioritas
Literatura em imagens: confluências entre as artes na prosa de Dany Laferrière
No full textThe current paper aims at analysing the Roman Dessiné in the work Autoportrait de Paris
avec Chat (2018) by Dany Laferrière, in view of the images present in the aforementioned
narrative. This fictional production, published in 2018, is the first example of the new genre
created by the Immortel de L’Académie Française author. At first glance, the audience might
confuse the book for a children’s sketchbook. However, the narrative is more than that. We
find three main characters in it: a famous writer about to receive the immortality distinction
for his books, the city of Paris, and the Cat, with a burlesque profile in a Dandy style, who
knows every cultural corner of the world’s most visited French capital. Thus, we are
immersed in a museum of images and words, in which a personal Paris emerges, populated by
the most famous artists from different aesthetic fields and from different periods. Dany
Laferrière’s Roman Dessiné reminds us of several avant-garde compositions, whether in
image or in writing. Considering these characteristics of the composition, we work with the
hypothesis that the Roman Dessiné is a result of the dialogues between literature and image,
which took place both during the 20th Century, and in the internal circuit of the set of Dany
Laferrière’s works. We believe that the author preserves a poetic and aesthetic tradition,
albeit, at the same time, implements innovations as he explores the levels of pictoriality
(LOUVEL, 2016a; LOUVEL, 2016b) in his works. For us, Autoportrait de Paris avec Chat
might be considered an aesthetic landmark in which we see the emergence, for the first time,
of an imagery concretism in the novel. Our preliminary results confirm that, through
parodistic drawings and caricatures, the Haitian-Québécois author illustrated the references
that constantly appear in his other productions, presenting, this time with his own hand, the
painters and the works that marked his route in some way.O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar o Roman Dessiné na obra Autoportrait de Paris
avec Chat (2018) de Dany Laferrière, tendo em vista as imagens presentes na narrativa em
questão. Essa produção ficcional, publicada em 2018, é o primeiro ‘espécime’ do novo gênero
criado pelo autor Imortal da Academia Francesa de Letras. Num primeiro olhar, o públicoleitor pode confundir o livro com um caderno de desenho infantil. Contudo, a narrativa é bem
mais que isso. Nela nos deparamos com três personagens principais: um escritor famoso que
está prestes a receber a condecoração de imortalidade por seus livros, a cidade Paris, e o Gato,
de perfil burlesco ao estilo dândi, que conhece cada recanto cultural da capital francesa mais
visitada do mundo. Assim, somos imersos num museu de imagens e de palavras, em que
surge uma Paris pessoal, povoada pelos artistas mais célebres dos diversos campos estéticos e
das variadas épocas. O Roman Dessiné de Dany Laferrière nos faz recordar diversas obras
vanguardistas, seja na imagem, seja na escrita. Tendo em vista essas características da obra,
trabalhamos a hipótese de que o Roman Dessiné é o resultado de diálogos entre literatura e
imagem, os quais aconteceram tanto no decorrer do século XX, quanto no circuito interno do
conjunto das obras de Dany Laferrière. Acreditamos que o autor resguarda uma tradição
poética e estética, todavia, ao mesmo tempo, inovando-as, na medida em que explora os
níveis de picturalidade (LOUVEL, 2016a; LOUVEL, 2016b) em suas obras. Para nós,
Autoportrait de Paris avec Chat pode ser considerado um marco estético em que vemos
surgir, pela primeira vez, um concretismo imagético no romance. Nossos resultados
preliminares confirmam que por meio de desenhos parodísticos e de caricaturas, o autor
haitiano-quebequense ilustrou as referências que surgem constantemente em outras de suas
produções, apresentando, desta vez de próprio punho, os pintores e as obras que marcaram, de
alguma forma, o seu percurso
The Literary Movement of Dany Laferrière; Francophone Literary History and the Future of French Literature- Brady Welvaert
No full textHaitian-Canadian-American author Dany Laferrière breaks the bonds of literary terms of categorization. In North America, French-language literature has a history of isolation and suppression, but the literature from Dany Laferrière pushes past boundaries placed by those who seek to categorize him. Laferrière, who identifies as “American” and wants to be seen as nothing else, seeks to embody an American identity in context of all of North America. But is there a sense of unity throughout North America despite borders, whether they are of countries our linguistic? Additionally, his election to the French Academy merits some questions worth addressing, considering a history of disinterest and even condescending attitudes toward the Haitian community
