This is conceived of accumulation of a certain amount of money through work at the place of destination in view of self-funding the costs of study in the tertiary education. [...] Secondly, in the state of dislocation, the youth may passively view migration as a recurring solution to limitations of the place of origin and therefore contains the promise or pain as reflected in the above first consideration. [...] The second type is that of the importance of links (of diverse nature) with the place of origin and the place of present stay. [...] Equally reflecting in the trajectories is on the one hand the developing meaning of migration to the individuals involved and on the other hand the multiple social influences shaping their perception of places. [...] As reported in this paper, the activities the individuals engaged in and the time period allocated to them to some extent reflect the importance of these activities in the particular social milieu in which they were situated.

The Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa, CODESRIA, held its 13th General Assembly, 5-9 December 2011, in Rabat Morocco. The theme of the scientific conference was: Africa and the Challenges of the Twenty-first Century. Some of the reasons that influenced the choice of this theme were to do with how Africa should position itself in the new global political and economic order in the context of an increasingly complex neoliberal globalisation. Changes in intercultural relations at the global level, climate change, poverty, rapid urbanisation, the ICTs revolution, the emergence of a multi-polar world and the phenomenon of emerging powers of the South are some of the realities of our world that are widely and extensively discussed by both academics and policy-makers. This book contains the statutory lectures of the 13th General Assembly. Each one speaks to major challenges that African and the Global South are facing in this second decade of the Twenty-first Century: neoliberal globalisation, capital flight, the land question, gender relations, with a particular focus on matriarchy; and universalism.

In the early years of the existence of the Council, most of its energies were, natu- rally, invested in the definition and implementation of the pan-African research strategy and agenda that inspired its founding and which was at the core of its mandate. [...] This document presents the core elements of the revised, updated, and codified statement of mission, objectives and practices of the publications and dissemination programme of the Council. [...] • Offer a forum for scholars working in the various disciplines and fields of the Social Sciences and Humanities in and on Africa to share research findings, debate different perspectives, exchange ideas, and forge new interconnections between theory and practice in the interest of promoting a more holistic understanding of the history, present and future of the African continent and its peoples. [...] In the light of this reality and conscious of its own experiences, CODESRIA has adopted the following distribution and marketing strategy: i) The primary objective of CODESRIA's publications and dissemina- tion programme shall be to facilitate the production and consump- tion of knowledge in the Social Sciences and Humanities in Africa. [...] However, in recognition of the fact that funds are sourced from members and donors for the Council's publishing programme and the growing do- nor reluctance to finance publications, and although it is true that the value of publishing in Africa by Africans is priceless, CODESRIA shall put in place measures for the recovery of some of the costs it incurs in the pro- duction and distribution process.
