The Migration of Albanians from Montenegro and Kosovo to the United States
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-63033-5 (ISBN)
Drawing on empirical research, including interview material, it goes beyond the experiences of individual migrants to explore the role that cultural identity has in shaping their mobility and immobility, with particular attention to the manner in which subjects talk about their experiences in terms of past and present movements and moments.
An original storytelling study of the meaning, scope, and outcomes of mobility, and the construction of home and identity on the part of migrants, this title will appeal to scholars of sociology, geography, anthropology, and politics with interests in migration and diaspora.
