  • Border festivals, closures and practical governance

    Open AccessPaul Nugent, Isabella SoiARTICLEAfrica2025

    Since the 1990s, there has been a proliferation of cultural festivals across West Africa. In this article, we argue that border festivals are distinctive.

    Isabella Soi, Paul NugentARTICLEJournal of Borderlands Studies2017Citada por: 6Referencias: 15
