Abstract:

Questions persist about post-migrant generations and their sense of belonging
in one homeland or another. As descendants of migrants, ‘second’ and further
generations often struggle to establish an unproblematic belonging in/to a
resident homeland, as the place where they live and work but are often
categorized as ‘outsiders’. Simultaneously, because of improving access to
travel, they can also maintain a physical presence in an ancestral homeland.
However, their encounters there may also problematize their sense of
belonging. During their summertime visits to Morocco, the European-Moroccan
participants in this ethnography repeatedly find themselves negotiating a
sense of belonging in the ‘homeland’. This book analyzes how these
negotiations take place in order to investigate how the categories of
‘diasporic’ and ‘Moroccan’ become shaped by the interactional encounters
observed. In the setting of Morocco, where trajectories to and from Europe
have colored several centuries of history, this book provides a framework to
explore how migration and return become incorporated into contemporary
‘Moroccanness’.
