Post-Migratory Cultures in Postcolonial France offers a critical
assessment of the ways in which French writers, filmmakers,
musicians and other artists descended from immigrants from former
colonial territories bring their specificity to bear on the bounds
and applicability of French republicanism, "Frenchness" and
national identity, and contemporary cultural production in France.
In mobilizing a range of approaches and methodologies pertinent to
their specialist fields of inquiry, contributors to this volume
share in the common objective of elucidating the cultural
productions of what we are calling post-migratory (second- and
third-generation) postcolonial minorities. The volume provides a
lens through which to query the dimensions of postcoloniality and
transnationalism in relation to post-migratory postcolonial
minorities in France and identifies points of convergence and
conversation among them in the range of their cultural production.
The cultural practitioners considered query traditional French high
culture and its pathways and institutions; some emerge as
autodidacts, introducing new forms of authorship and activism; they
inflect French cultural production with different 'accents', some
experimental and even avant-garde in nature. As the volume
contributors show, though post-migratory postcolonial minorities
sometimes express dis-settlement, they also provide an incisive
view of social identities in France today and their own compelling
visions for the future.
