Rezensionen

"At last, a contribution to migration scholarship that cuts across typologies of migrants, to reach a deep understanding of the sense of home as a matter of practice. Developing an innovative theoretical approach related to migration and mobility, this book is an excellent example of the role of ethnographic fieldwork in overcoming a static understanding of home and providing complex insights into processual, shifting dimensions of spatiotemporal arrangements that shape domestic lives." - Maja Povrzanovic Frykman, Malmö University, Sweden

"This theoretically oriented empirical study contributes outstandingly to the social anthropology of migration. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty." - D. A. Chekki in CHOICE
