    Beskrivning

    Growing recognition of transnational practices and identities is changing the way scholars and activists ask questions about migration. Organizing the Transnational articulates a multi-level cultural politics of transnationalism to frame contemporary analyses of immigration and diasporas. With chapters by academics and activists working from diverse perspectives, the volume moves beyond the conventional focus on states and migrants to consider a wide array of institutions, actors, and forms of mobilization that shape transnational engagements and communities. Its unique approach will inform the work of researchers, practitioners, and activists interested in the dynamics of transnational social spaces.

    Recensioner i media

    With Organizing the Transnational: Labour, Politics, and Social Change, Luin Goldring and Sailaja Krishnamurti present the diversity and expression of transnationalism as both concept and reality. By incorporating non-academics in this discussion, the collection expands the current debate on transnationalism to include the perspectives of non-governmental actors and agencies. ... As such, the book serves as a springboard to share and debate the origins and manifestations of transnational identity in the Canadian context. - David Dorey, International Settlement Canada, Vol. 21, No. 4, Spring 2008
