ABSTRACT As a way to address the current postcolonial moment, characteristic of ongoing relations of resource extraction and border control, we turn to the metaphor of the plantation, offering an interpretation of Katherine McKittrick’s idea of plantation logics. Plantation museums, centered on former planters’ mansions (the ‘big house’) in the U.S., are important vehicles for narrating the historical period of slavery. However, such historical sites have traditionally steered away from addressing the role of enslavement in the production of the space of the big house. This erasure of the enslaved obscures the spatial and social relationality of the plantation. While continental Europe lacks these plantation houses and thus museums, it is no less important for the former colonial states in Europe to narrate their own historical involvement in slavery and, equally important, its contemporary legacies. In both contexts, we see a selective remembering of the past that is grounded in a spatial and temporal distancing of the plantation that renders the centrality of slavery to the production and reproduction of Europe invisible. In this article, we use the metaphor of the big house to illustrate how the logic of the plantation is replicated across scales of time and space. We argue that a failure to recognize the ongoing reality of the plantation logic as embodied by the European big house enables its reproduction, including in the environmental catastrophe of the Plantationocence. A consideration of Maroon geographies explores narrations of the plantation that point to a way forward to alternative futures.

ABSTRACT This paper draws on interviews with Africans of binational parental heritage to expand the literature on identity formation in two ways. First, it takes on the factors that shape primary identity formation more fully by extending it beyond the current focus on state constrictures on primary identity formation. We argue in this paper that in addition to state constricture, closeness of family ties is yet another factor that shapes the primary identity of individuals with binationality. Individuals claim the identity of that parent whose extended family members have a cordial relationship with them as evident in communication patterns, visits, presence at rites of passage, and the extent to which extended family members embrace them as one of their own. Second, we interrogate the literature on hybridity beyond its focus on types to highlight the instrumental and intrinsic purposes to which hybridity can be put. We show how individuals with a primary identity would choose a secondary identity for instrumental reasons such as the education or work opportunities it provides. The intrinsic value of secondary identity is the entertainment options and sense of self it provides. This piece, focusing on both the factors that shape primary identity as well as when/for what purpose such individuals choose a secondary identity, highlights the agency of such individuals.

ABSTRACT The main issue to be discussed in this article is the takeover of women’s authority by men in the inheritance system of the extended family’s property in the Semende community (Indonesia). This departs from the idea that, according to the custom, the authority to manage the extended family’s inheritance in the form of houses and agricultural land is handed over to the eldest daughter in the family, who is known as tunggu tubang. However, the current practice is that the authority to manage the agricultural land is taken over by men, while the tunggu tubang is only given the authority over the house. This shows that the authority of the tunggu tubang begins to erode, even creating pseudo-authority, deception, and hyperreality. This article aims at describing the system of inheritance of the extended family’s property that is practiced by the Semende community today, by understanding the position of women (tunggu tubang) and men in this inheritance system, and the implications for the social structure of the Semende community as a whole.

ABSTRACT Nigeria has been battling insecurity due to the ravaging activities of different terrorist groups. The COVID-19 lockdown worsened the issue as it led to a hike in criminal activities. People were forced to sit at home for months and the unintended result of hunger and starvation prompted more criminal activities. While Boko Haram insurgents and Bandits have turned the North upside down with violent killings and abduction for ransom. Middle Belt is soiled with the blood of innocent people slaughtered by Fulani Herdsmen, resulting in food insecurity that has hit the nation so hard. But, the South is gripped with the fear of kidnappers, armed robbers, and unknown gunmen rampaging the society. Previous studies on the pandemic have paid little attention to the literary analysis of its relationship with security. Through Textual Analytical Criticism and Realism, Agary’s Yellow Yellow, Habila’s Oil on Water, Udenwe’s Satans and Shaitans, and Adimora-Ezeigbo’s ‘Mr. President’s Change Agent’ and ‘Dilemma of a Senior Citizen’ are analyzed in this study to explore pre- and COVID-19 era peace and security challenges in Nigeria and suggest ways of combating insecurity in the post-COVID-19 pandemic era.
