Mapping Algeria's Borders: An Ethnographic reading

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: At the intersection of the sociology of migration and departure and the sociology of urban youth, the essential notion of the border and its importance in the field of migration studies is fundamental.From my earliest studies, I was confronted with the same discourse held by young people who asserted that departure (commonly called harga in Maghreb countries) was the best, if not the only, alternative for social success.The underlying meaning of the statements of young potential candidates for this mode of migration is "leaving to succeed-leaving to get by."This research aims to understand this motivation and the representation of the border of these hundreds of potential candidates for this mode of migration known as harga.Citation
