Ethnographic Borders and Boundaries (eBook, PDF)

Permeability, Plasticity, and Possibilities

Beschreibung

Immigrants, migrants, displaced, and diasporic persons: all have been constrained or enabled by borders of some sort. This book explores international cases of how and why such boundaries come to be; who is affected by socially constructed borders; what it means to individuals and nation-states to recognise and deal with arbitrary divisions; and finally, what might be done to find - and act on - solutions to the inequity wrought by these borders and boundaries.

Rezensionen

«A stunning collection of border-crossing, transgressive essays on the complexities of living in the twilight zones of the postmodern, complexities made visible by contemporary ethnography at the crossroads. A must read.» (Norman K. Denzin, Emeritus Professor, University of Illinois)
