Abstract

 Transnational mobilities enforce new social groups, bringing out the multidimensional problematic of identities. They all have the Human being as common factor. It is so for afropeanism, the concept of hybrid nationality promoted by the franco-cameronian writer Léonora Miano. She is specialised in defining afrodescendants and subsaharians born or living in Europe. Most of the time, these afrodescendants and subsaharians face integration problems and the question of their identity, dreaming of a community where race would no longer have the right to exist. Our analysis will shed light on realism and utopia as salient features of the author’s imaginary.
