dc.description.abstractThe Angolan village of Cusseque, established during thecountry’s civil war, lost its military purpose when the conflictended in 2002. The village’s neighbors assumed that Cusseque’sremaining residents would leave; most stayed. They have sincefought to legitimize their presence. Fieldwork with Cussequeresidents helps illuminate why they assert their merging withthe land—a merging that I callbodyland—through the agencyof honeybees. These men and women exert a compelling bodypolitics, one that is subject to the more-than-human agenciesthat dissolve the contours of the human. Moreover, Cusseque’sresidents contribute to anthropological discussions abouthuman-land relations by blending the question of the humanwith that of the land. They defy pervasive humanist regimes inwhich the legitimacy of human presence is dissociated from theinterdependence between body and land.
