Description:
Based on detailed ethnographic accounts, the contributors to this volume focus on the imaginations, expectations, and motivations that propel the pursuit of migration.
Review Quotes:
As a whole, the book is beautifully written and produced. It is a significant contribution to migration studies, in situating international migration within the context of other migration circuits, emphasizing the impossibility of
calculating losses and gains beforehand, and examining how 'The Global Horizon' becomes significant material for personal repositories, struggles, and imaginaries.
