Returnee dilemmas: dangerous trousers and threatening mini-skirts -- Jiom-season of fighting and running: conflict, mobility, gender -- Mai-season of displacement: becoming 'modern' in Kakuma -- Rwil-season of 'returns' -- Season of settling-in: land and livelihoods -- Tot-gendered emplacement identities, ideologies and marriage -- Returnees as visitors and the Nuer community: where do we go from here?
"This book follows the lives of a group of Nuer in the Greater Upper Nile region. The narratives of those displaced and those who stayed behind reveal the complexity of social change and show how this has impacted on state formation in what is now South Sudan, and, in particular, the crucial yet relatively unconsidered transformation of gender and generational relations."--Back cover.
