SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Senegal, a Muslim majority and democratic country, has long coined itself as 'le pays de la terànga' (Land of Hospitality). This dissertation explores the central importance of terànga -the Wolof word which encapsulates the generous and civic-minded qualities of individuals - to events such as weddings and baptisms, women's political process, as well as everyday calculated and improvisational social encounters. Terànga is both the core symbol, for many, of Senegalese nationalism and collective identity, and the source of contentious and polarizing debates surrounding its qualities and meanings.
