本文描述了达喀尔的移民与他们在农村家乡的亲戚之间关系的变化,以及传统的亲属结构如何逐渐被城市中新的团结网络所取代。虽然汇款是农村家庭的一项重要资源,特别是在新收获前的“饥饿月份”,但移徙者的来访与常规的季节性农业工作无关,而是偶尔参加家庭仪式。这意味着临时移民减少,城市常住人口增加。
This paper describes the changes in the relationships between migrants in Dakar and their relatives In rural home areas, and how traditional kin structures are gradually replaced by new solidarity networks in the city. While remittances are an important resource for rural households, especially during the "hungry months" before the new harvest, migrants' visits are not linked to regular seasonal agricultural work but rather to occasional participation in family ceremonies. suggesting a decrease in temporary migration and a more permanent urban residence.
