505 0  Introduction -- Enregistering modernity, bluffing 
       criminality : how nouchi speech reinvented the nation -- 
       Bizness and "blood brothers" : the moral economy of crime 
       -- Faire le show : maquis masculinity and the performative
       success of waste -- Fashioning alterity : masking, 
       metonymy, and otherworld origins -- Paris is hard like a 
       rock : migration and the spatial hierarchy of global 
       relations -- Counterfeit belongings : branding the 
       Ivoirian political crisis -- Conclusion : modernity as 
       bluff. 
520    In Côte d'Ivoire, appearing modern is so important for 
       success that many young men deplete their already meager 
       resources to project an illusion of wealth in a fantastic 
       display of Western imitation, spending far more than they 
       can afford on brand name clothing, accessories, technology,
       and a robust nightlife. Such imitation, however, is not 
       primarily meant to deceive--rather, as Sasha Newell argues
       in The Modernity Bluff, it is an explicit performance so 
       valued in Côte d'Ivoire it has become a matter of national
       pride. Called bluffeurs, these young urban men operate in 
       a system of cultural eco.
