‘Brothers’ or Others: Propriety and gender for Muslim Arab Sudanese in Egypt, by Anita H. FábosNew York, NY and Oxford: Berghahn Books, 2008
Enjoyed the overview of ethnicity construction of northern Sudanese living in Cairo. The most important observation is one she rightly highlights, which is how a tiny minority of 'strangers' end up with a set of discussions of identity determinants (adab, in the case) that the larger population is almost unconcerned with.
