Black or Red Atlantic? — Mozambican Students in Cuba and their Reintegration at Home Hauke Dorsch Institut für Ethnologie und Afrikastudien, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Forum Universitatis 6, D-55099 Mainz Abstract. This article presents the experiences of Mozambican children who were sent in the 1970s and 80s to study in Cuba as well as their professional and ideological orientation after their return. Challen- ging collectivising perspectives on either an Anthropology of the Afro-Atlantic or Socialist Internation- alism, this contribution focuses on an individual and his agency in the highly regulated and disciplined context of Cuban schools. However, this context must be described in order to appreciate the agency. Thus, the article shortly presents Cuban-African relations after the Cuban Revolution, it describes how che students were selected, sent abroad, were assigned their subjects, were sent back home and finally integrated into the work force — or in the latter case — how the state failed to do so. It shortly looks at the current situation of African students in Cuba with respect to issues of race and identity and how the Cuban discourse of Cuba being an Afro-Latin nation, owing its development to the work of Africans and paying it back through its missions of solidarity, is experienced by African students. [south-south relations, educational migration, socialism, Cuba, Mozambique] Strolling through Maputo’s streets at an early stage of the Southern African part of my research on African students in Cuba,* I was addressed by a young man, asking me whether I spoke English. He explained to me that he worked in import and export, travelling between South Africa and Mozambique, and asked me if I was South Afri- can. When I answered that I came from Germany, the conversation immediately switched to German and he explained that he lived in Germany for a while and had This contribution is based on research conducted in the context of the SFB/FK 560 at the Univer- sity of Bayreuth and its research group on South-South relations, directed by Katrin Hansing. We focused on Cuban-African collaboration-ties in the fields of education and medicine. Katrin Hansing worked with Cuban doctors who worked in different African countries or who still work in Mozambi- que and South Africa, whereas I spoke with students from a wide variety of African countries who to- day study in Cuba and with returnees in South Africa and Mozambique who went to school or uni- versities in Cuba at some time during the past four decades. We conducted our research in Cuba; Mozambique and South Africa together, which is why I will often write of “us” when referring to field work situations. Furthermore I would like to stress, that the following arguments benefited highly from our discussions on these subjects. Research took place in Cuba from 09/2004 to 03/2005 and in Mozambique and South Africa from 08/2005 to 03/2006. See Hansing/Dorsch 2005, Dorsch 2008a/ 2008b.
