This article focuses on rural girls' aspirations of becoming migrants in a setting where girls are subjected to social constraints curtailing their movements in the midst of an otherwise mobile society, where mothers and grandmothers frequently recall their experiences in Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire, and boys set off on their first migration in their mid- or late teens. However, the high level of mobility affects both intergenerational relations and the ways in which girls can justify their wish to migrate. Based on multi-sited ethnographic research between 2002 and 2008 in Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire, the article explores the ways in which images of success and material wealth of (trans)national migrants feed into adolescent girls' imaginations of migration and its outcome. Furthermore,...

Based on a unique retrospective survey conducted in 2000 with several cohorts of men and women in Burkina Faso, the study analyzes how the transition to adulthood in the two largest urban centers of the country has evolved over the past twenty years. Results show that both the timing and the nature of important social steps in the lives of male and female youth, such as end of schooling, first paid employment, residential independence, first union and first birth, have undergone considerable changes since 1980. The period during which youth remain economically dependent on their elders seems clearly to be lengthening in Burkinabe cities. With a longer and more complex transition phase between childhood and adulthood, young people's life trajectories are also more diverse and new social ...

To add another prick to Canadian complacency, Mr. [Gilles Duceppe] indicated that he and his party would no longer leave the issue of Quebec sovereignty on the back burner. The MPs that the party sends to Ottawa will no longer concentrate their attention on improving conditions for Quebec within Canada, as they have done in such a nicely hypocritical fashion for the last decade, but will focus their attention on separating their province from the rest of the country.
Their timing could hardly be better. The idea of a Liberal-NDP coalition tacitly supported by a separatist Bloc Quebecois to replace the elected Conservative government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper is now pretty well dead and buried, the victim of the new Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff, who sensibly sees that climbing...
