Content:
"This book investigates the relationship between West African immigrant political activism, government surveillance, and the social welfare state in post-colonial France. This book weaves together three inter-related areas of historical scholarship: the history of immigration to France, the political lives of immigrant communities, and policymaking to offer a new appraisal of post-colonialism and neocolonialism in the 1960s and 1970s"--
