Hannah Soong is a lecturer at the University of South Australia. Her research interests lie in the sociological study of the transnational mobility through education. Her key research disciplines include migration and identity studies, social imagination, teacher education and the intersubjectivity of self and society in postmodernity. By using socio-anthropological lenses in her doctoral work, Hannah has developed a conceptual framework to deepen one’s understanding on the meaning of mobility of students who are on the verge of migration through education processes.

"The nexus between international education and migration is a complex one, and suggests a new kind of transnational cultural politics, transforming the notion of migrancy itself. This book provides a wonderful analysis of the aspirations of international students to embrace the new possibilities that transnationalism now offers -- of global mobility, opportunities and flexible citizenship." - Professor Fazal Rizvi, Melbourne Graduate School of Education, The University of Melbourne, Australia"This richly detailed book interestingly reveals how multiple and conflicting logics of belonging and imagining generates new understandings of the processes of transnationalism, migration and identity." - John Urry, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, Lancaster University, UK
