Nations Unbound: Transnational Projects, Postcolonial Predicaments and Deterritorialized Nation-States de Linda Basch

Nations Unbound: Transnational Projects, Postcolonial Predicaments and Deterritorialized Nation-States

Autor Linda Basch, Nina Glick Schiller, Cristina Szanton Blanc
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 noi 2015
Nations Unbound is a pioneering study of an increasing trend in migration-transnationalism. Immigrants are no longer rooted in one location. By building transnational social networks, economic alliances and political ideologies, they are able to cross the geographic and cultural boundaries of both their countries of origin and of settlement. Through ethnographic studies of immigrant populations, the authors demonstrate that transnationalism is something other than expanded nationalism. By placing immigrants in a limbo between settler and visitor, transnationalism challenges the concepts of citizenship and of nationhood itself.

Recenzii

"This is an exciting book because it deals with a major issue of our times that is yet only poorly understood. Our authors show how transmigrants link their home countries with the countries of their sojourns, how this changes the state of affairs in both, and how we are all caught up in these changes. By looking closely at the lives of particular populations, the authors are able to illuminate important shifts and changes in the world. At the same time, they speak to issues of race, ethnicity, gender and class, and significantly alter the ways we understand them."
