Ceuta & the EU Customs Union How to Europeanize Europe´S Margins? Ceuta & the EU Customs Union How to Europeanize Europe´s margins? Bachelor-thesis June 22nd, 2012 Studies: Sociale Geografie, Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen Student: Janna Völpel Student-number: 3015041 Supervisor: Dr. Olivier Thomas Kramsch Acknowledgements I would like to use this foreword to thank all the participants of this research, my supervisors at Radboud University (Olivier Thomas Kramsch and Xavi Ferrer-Gallardo) and teachers at the NIMAR-institute in Rabat for making this research possible and give me inspiring input over and over again. I also would like to express deep sorrow I feel knowing about the conditions some border-people from Morocco have to stand in their daily life and which are now forced to adapt to a new situation, which might even endanger their survival – especially for elderly and women. Instead of extending this foreword I would like to quote from an Argentinian- Brasilian friend of mine, whose ideas I appreciate even more after researching on Ceuta and the border-region from post-colonial perspectives: “Hay una técnica que te puede ser muy útil, intenta descubrir diferencias en donde el común de los hombres no ve sino semejanzas e intenta descubrir semejanzas donde los hombres no ven sino diferencias” Leonardo de Matos Lima (“There is a technique which can be very useful - try to discover the difference where people do not see but similarities and try to discover similarities where people do not see but difference”.) 2 Summary This qualitative, explorative case-study aims to theorize recent transformation processes in the border-region of Ceuta and Northern Morocco. A recent decision in 2011 by Ceuta as consequence and cause of transformations has been to join the EU Customs Union in 2012. Further it seeks to understand how the decision-making process and debate have been influenced by “Europeanization” –processes and carry attributes of “European-ness”. Using post-colonial theories attributes of Europeanization are traced in transformations, arguments in the debate about joining the EU Customs Union and thinking of border-people from both sides of the border. Besides, potential attributes of Europeanization in potential socio-economic effects in the border region are put into scene. That way an answer is given to the research-question, in which way attributes of European-ness, otherness, Europeanization and resistance are reflected in transformations in the border-region, factors in the debate about joining the EU-Customs Union and thinking of border-people from both sides in Ceuta. This research has thus challenged and proved applicability of postcolonial theory to the special border phenomena of Ceuta, also highlighting one-sidedness of decision-making (Ceuta as site of decision) impacting also the other side of the border (the Moroccan part of the border-region). During the research process some background information resulted essential to understand the subject of analysis, namely transformations concerning the joining of the Customs Union in Ceuta: first of all it is important to know that the Customs Union is an institution appointed to create a single European market and regulating same conditions for international importation into the EU member-states. Ceuta is still a free-zone not adhering to the fiscal regime of that institution. Fiscal conditions are therefore advantageous in the city. It was Ceuta´s decision in 1986 (when Spain became a member-state of the EU) not to join the Customs. Reasons were disadvantageous historical and economic singularities, which were to be compensated by maintaining a special fiscal regime. The latter has determined Ceuta’s economic structure relying on irregular trading to Northern Morocco (irregular - because the border to Morocco is until now not recognized by Morocco, claiming Moroccan- ness of the territory). Consequently interwoven relations with Northern Morocco find expression in every-day routine, while at the same time Spanish-ness and European-ness are being accentuated. The border-passage is the site, where the economic particularity of the system is especially visible, but the singularity is also reflected in the life and discourses of the Moroccan traders involved. The economic model of Ceuta became subject to debate due to changing conditions since 1986. The decision- making about joining the Customs Union started at the decision not to join. Arguments have developed through time, finally leading to a positive decision in 2011. Before, worries about potentially negative effects such as the change in prices affecting consumption costs and importation were stronger. The consequent reduction of irregular trade would require re-orientation of the economy and cause unemployment. Besides more economic reasons, political tensions with Morocco were feared. In the official discourse, though, the loss of jobs and basis of survival for thousands of poor Moroccan border-traders is not mentioned. Arguments about positive effects such as improving Ceuta’s status in the European Community, affirming its European-ness also before Morocco 3 and the urgent need for reform were convincing in 2011, especially given the disarmament of customs tariffs between Morocco and the EU. Postcolonial theories chosen for analysis are based on the concepts “Europeanization” and “European-ness” proposed by Kuus (2004). Her analysis of how Europe is configured in relation to the Oriental is fundamental, explaining the constitution of self-images. Conditionality in the way Europe builds up “good” relationships to its “outside” and Eastern inside is based on demanding conformity to European values in exchange. “Not-yet”- European areas, such as Morocco and places marked by otherness within the Union such as Ceuta seek to attribute more European-ness to themselves –corresponding European standards. Strategies of attaining this are especially grounded in discursive shifting of boundaries of European-ness away from the own place and even beyond Europe´s margins - which then Europeanize themselves discursively. Mignolo´s “postcolonial” thinking (2000) or “borderthinking” is about focusing on dichotomous concepts to decolonize dichotomous, modernist categorization. For the case of Ceuta´s border this refers especially to the line separating the European from the Other, the colonized Oriental world of Morocco and Africa. Researching on the border-region and border-people, who might have a perspective from the border much more than others, goes in hand with these ideas. It is then crucial to think from dichotomous concepts, taking into account the colonial difference. Theoretical contributions by Kramsch focus on the European Neighborhood policy implying a similar conditionality in Eurocentric policy as described by Kuus. Also diversity and potential of resistance are aspects of relevance of Kramsch´s article (2011) pointing to agency and power within the process of Europeanization. Economic aspects of the decision-making around the transformation around the border are significant, regarding development as part of the modernity and attribute of European-ness. Template thinking and the process of “neoliberalization” (Sparke, 2002) transmit principles related to the logic of European-ness according to Sparke. Neoliberalist ideas are thus indicative of the ”European-value-package” (in Ceuta AND in Morocco). Rumford points to the particularity of borders emphasizing change and transformation through Europeanizing and borderwork realized by simple border-people contesting established borders and multiplying them (Rumford, 2008). From these theories indicators have been operationalized in order to analyze attributes of more static European- ness, Otherness, and more dynamic processes of Europeanization and resistance. Qualitative methods have been applied to gather data in the field as well as literature study of different media since 1984 for the analysis. Respondents for the research included two distinct groups: Moroccan border-people daily crossing the border for work (having opportunities to think from the border) and experts on the economic decision-making about the Customs Union from Ceuta. The exhaustive analysis brought along certain key-findings which are worth mentioning here: The aim of the study to theorize the transformations by the recent and current developments in Ceuta and understanding the decision-making process and debate about the Customs Union was attained. Indicators from post-colonial theories have helped to generate huge amounts of data and to create a differentiated image of Europeanization in the border-region. 4 Europeanization is reflected for transformations before the decision-making e.g. considering construction of the border fence, substitution of kinds of goods and origins (now originating mainly in Europe), the Tanger-Med- project or the gradual liberalization of Morocco. Europeanizing transformations of Morocco put Ceuta under pressure stimulating reaction – namely the debate about the Customs Union. Europeanization seems a self- perpetuating process then, relying on mutual stimulation and reaction on both sides of the border. Thereby borders to ´other` less European Europe´s and Orients, such as Ceuta and Morocco and more European Europes are multiplied discursively. Arguments justifying the decision about the Customs Union are driven by neoliberal template thinking with the aim of modernization – Europeanizing the city. For the thinking of border- people we have evidence for long-lasting, penetrating Europeanization without any clear beginning.

In the developing Atlantic world, pirates were often commissioned as privateers and functioned both as a first line of defense against seaborne attack from imperial foes and as essential economic contributors in the oft -depressed colonies. In the latter half of the seventeenth century, moreover, colonial pirates and privateers became important transcultural brokers in the Indian Ocean region, spanning the globe to form an Indo-Atlantic trade network be tween North America and Madagascar.

  • Analysis of Y-Chromosome and Mtdna Variability in the Madeira Archipelago Population
    International Congress Series 1288 (2006) 94–96 www.ics-elsevier.com Analysis of Y-chromosome and mtDNA variability in the Madeira Archipelago population Ana T. Fernandes *, Rita Gonc¸alves, Alexandra Rosa, Anto´nio Brehm Human Genetics Laboratory, University of Madeira, Campus of Penteada, Funchal, Portugal Abstract. The Atlantic archipelago of Madeira is made up of two islands (Madeira and Porto Santo) with 250,000 inhabitants. These islands were discovered and settled by the Portuguese in the 15th century and played an important role in the complex Atlantic trade network in the following centuries. The genetic composition of the Madeira Islands’ population was investigated by analyzing Y-chromosomal bi-allelic and STR markers in three different regions of the main island plus Porto Santo. We compared the results with mtDNA data and used the Y-chromosome STRs to determine the variability within each haplogroup. A sample of 142 unrelated males divided into four groups (Funchal City, West Madeira, North and East Madeira and Porto Santo) were analyzed. Significant genetic differences between these regions and the population of Funchal were found. The population of Funchal had lower gene diversity than expected. D 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Introduction The Madeira archipelago is made up of two inhabited islands, Madeira and Porto Santo, and has a population of about 250,000 inhabitants, with more than half living in Funchal. The Portuguese colonized the Madeira Archipelago in the 15th century and, in the beginning of the colonization, the archipelago was divided into three parts (Southwest and Northeast in the Madeira Island, and Porto Santo) and given to three administrators [1].

CHAPTER I THE PORTUGUESE EMPIRE The boundaries Until well into the seventeenth century, as far as the Iberians were concerned, the way the world was divided and the role they were to play therein as champions of the church was clear-cut and straightforward. Already in the fifteenth century the rights of the Portuguese monarchs on the portus, insulas, terras et maria still to be conquered had been confirmed by Papal edicts. They bestowed the privilege to intrude into the countries of the Saracenes and heathens, to take them prisoner, take all their possessions and reduce them to eternal slavery. Derived from this right of conquest were the rights of legislation, jurisdiction and tribute and the monopolies of navigation, trade and fishing. Besides, the kings were allowed to build churches, cloisters and other holy places and to send clergy and other volunteers, to spread the true religion, to receive confessions and to give absolutions. Excommunication or interdiction were the penalties for Christians who violated these royal monopolies.1 As the Castilians were just as keen on the collection of slaves and gold and the overseas expansion of the mission, a clash of interests was inevitable.2 In 1479, the Castilians used the opportunity of king Afonso V's defeat, after he attempted to acquire the Castilian throne, to establish their rights on the Canary islands.

  • Madeira and the Beginnings of New World Sugar Cane Cultivation and Plantation Slavery: a Study in Institution Building*
    MADEIRA AND THE BEGINNINGS OF NEW WORLD SUGAR CANE CULTIVATION AND PLANTATION SLAVERY: A STUDY IN INSTITUTION BUILDING* Sidney M. Greenfield Department of Anthropology The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201 Although the tropical New World is generally taken as the context for the comparative and historical study of plantation systems and of slavery, the institutional complex of the slave plantation' did not have its origins in the Western Hemisphere. Instead, as Charles Verlinden2 and others have demon- strated so ably, the culture complex can be traced back to the European colonies established in Palestine following the First Crusade. There sugar was grown by a mixed force of free and slave workers. The sugar then was exported, with some of it reaching the developing markets of Western Europe. Sugar cane had been known to Europe at least as far back as antiquity, although its distribution was limited. The cultivation of the crop, and its in- creased availability and wider distribution, came to Mediterranean Europe in the wake of the expansion of Islam. Sugar cane, most probably first domesticated in India, had been grown in Asia Minor and was carried along with the spread of Islam to the coastal regions of North Africa, the islands of the Mediterranean, and eventually to the Moorish kingdoms in the Iberian peninsula.3 Given the intensity of the conflict between Christianity and Islam during the Middle Ages, trade between the areas controlled by the rival religions tended to be minimal. Hence sugars produced in areas under Moslem control went, for the most part, to supply markets in the Near East and North Africa, while the markets of Europe had to be supplied from areas under Christian control.

  • Socotra Archipelago – a Lifeboat in the Sea of Changes: Advancement in Socotran Insect Biodiversity Survey
    ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSEI NATIONALIS PRAGAE Published 17.xii.2012 Volume 52 (supplementum 2), pp. 1–26 ISSN 0374-1036 Socotra Archipelago – a lifeboat in the sea of changes: advancement in Socotran insect biodiversity survey Jan BATELKA Nad Vodovodem 16, CZ-100 00 Prague 10, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Nature conditions in the Socotra Archipelago are briefl y summarised, main factors contributing to the composition and diversity of the insect fauna, i.e. geological history, geographic position, geomorphology, climatic conditions and plant diversity, are circumscribed. Results of the Socotran invertebrate biodiversity research are reviewed, the fi rst annotated list of 40 insect genera and subgenera endemic to the Socotra Archipelago is provided. Recorded high level of ende- mism in the Socotra Island is in accordance with the estimated geological age and continuous stability of its ecosystem. Brief comparison of biodiversity in Socotra and Seychelles Islands – both granitic archipelagos of Gondwanan origin in the West Indian Ocean – is performed. Difference in composition of insect fauna in Socotra and allied Abd el Kuri Island is commented. Main threats and conservation issues concerning the fragile Socotran ecosystem are summarised, and examples of possible consequences for insect fauna are given. Based on comparison of scarce outputs and research activities concerning the Socotran insect fauna so far with the number of those elaborated for other countries/islands, establishing of a long-term insect survey is recommended.

  • Persistence of the Plantation and National Agricultural Problems
    Persistence of the Plantation and National Agricultural Problems MERLE C. PRUNTY Department of Geography University of Georgia There are two objectives that I hope to satisfy in this discussion. The first is to establish the persistence, the viability and. flexibility under a wide variety of conditions, of the plantation as an agricultural operational type from medieval times in the Medi­ terranean to the present on the American scene. The second objective is to assess some of the problems confronting the management of properties of the plantation type in regard to our national agricultural problems, and the potentials therein for changing the directions of policymaking. It is necessary to define the term "plantation", and the operational system which it compasses, at the outset. Plantations have been variously defined by scholars in different fields. My definition, that of a geographer, is broad enough to encompass the interests of most specialists in other disciplines and it has withstood examination by scholars here and abroad for more than two decades. I have defined the plantation as comprising the following five elements (Prunty, 1955): 1. a large landholding, large enough to be distinguishable from the "family farm"; 2. a distinct division of labor and management functions, with management customarily in the hands of the owner. Generally it has taken the equivalent of at least five full-time employees to permit management to emerge as a full-time function embodied in one individual; 89 MERLE C" PRUNTY 3. specialized agricultural production, usually involving two or three specialties per proprietorship, and most of the production destined for cash sale; 4.
