Bringing together a wide range of original empirical research from locations and interconnected geographical contexts across the world, Translocal Geographies sets out a new agenda for mobility, which emphasizes the enduring connectedness between places during the experience of mobility. These issues are examined through three broad themes: home and family, neighbourhoods, and city spaces.
