"Links to the Diasporic Homeland: Second Generation and Ancestral ‘Return’ Mobilities was originally published as a special issue of Mobilities, one of the most relevant international journals on migration. Now, this volume edited by the leading researchers in migration, Russell King, Anastasia Christou and Peggy Levitt, is also available in a book form. It puts forward empirical analyses of return mobilities to and from the ancestral homelands of the second generation and beyond. The nine individual contributions show the diversity of return migrations and circulatory movements in Europe (the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Greece and Albania), North America, the Caribbean, the Gulf, South Asia and Africa (Ghana, Somalia and Uganda). They are framed within the mobilities, transnational and return migration/diaspora paradigms on a trans/local and global scale." Joanna Rak, University in Poznan
