Traces the concept of autochthony back to the classical period and incisively explores the idea in two very different contexts: Cameroon and the Netherlands. This book examines the emotional appeal of autochthony - as well as its dubious historical basis - and sheds light on a range of issues, such as multiculturalism, and national citizenship.
