This book explores what it takes to create a sense of home while in exile, drawing on ethnographic research conducted in German asylum reception facilities from 2016-2020. From a material culture perspective, it examines how asylum seekers and migrants with precarious legal status 'translate' aspects of home into challenging environments. Through these translations-processual shifts of objects, habits, and ideas across borders-migrants work to reassemble a sense of belonging. The book delves into the material, social, and individual efforts involved in this homing process, while highlighting the ongoing impact of dispossession and loss. By focusing on personal attachments to objects and the broader context of migration, this work offers a unique perspective on forced migration, home cultures, and the quest for ontological security. The book will be of interest to scholars, researchers, and students in disciplines such as anthropology, sociology, and human geography as well as other research interested in ethnographic perspectives on the respective topics.

Aixela-Cabre, Yolanda, African Women's Histories in European Narratives: The Afropolitan Krio Fernandino Diaspora (1850-1996). 280 pp. 2025:6 (Leuven U. Pr., BE) <745-931>

The Krio Fernandino women, pioneers of Europe's African diaspora in the 19th Century.Little is known about the African women who came to Europe from the 1870s onwards, nor do we dare to imagine them as wealthy, elegantly dressed individuals with refined tastes and fluent in several languages. The Krio Fernandino represented a multisited, multilocal, transnational, transcontinental and Afropolitan community that lived between Africa and Europe from the late 19th century onwards. This book explains how the Krio Fernandino, and particularly their women, transcended the barriers of race and gender in colonial Africa and in Spain. Aixela-Cabre highlights a fascinating journey across cultures and continents, unearthing a compelling narrative of African women's empowerment in their home continent and in Catalonia. This research highlights a women's history that resonates on regional, national and transcontinental levels; a genuine Euro-African and Afro-European legacy to be preserved for future generations.This book will be made open access within three years of publication thanks to Path to Open, a program developed in partnership between JSTOR, the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS), University of Michigan Press, and The University of North Carolina Press to bring about equitable access and impact for the entire scholarly community, including authors, researchers, libraries, and university presses around the world.

Die Interviewstudie fuehrt in die gegenwaertigen Lebenswelten russischsprachiger Juedinnen und Juden in Deutschland ein. Im Vordergrund steht dabei, welche Erfahrungen sie in Deutschland als Post-Shoah-Land sowie im Zusammenhang mit dem Krieg gegen die Ukraine, dem Terror gegen Israel und mit Antisemitismus gemacht haben und wie das auf ihre Vorstellungen von Identitaet und ?Heimat“ wirkt. Es zeigt sich, dass sich diese Vorstellungen angesichts von Krieg, Terror und Antisemitismus veraendern. Was als neues Zuhause erschlossen werden soll oder worden ist, droht nun angesichts des grassierenden Antisemitismus diesen Status zu verlieren. Die soziologische Studie bietet die Grundlage dafuer, sich marginalisierten Perspektiven anzunaehern und Bedarfe auf unterschiedlichen Handlungsfeldern abzuleiten.

How and why do those from black and minority ethnic communities continue to be marginalised? Despite claims that we now live in a post-racial society, race continues to disadvantage those from black and minority ethnic backgrounds. In this fully revised and updated edition, Kalwant Bhopal explores how changing social, economic and political circumstances have increased, rather than decreased, racial discrimination in both the UK and USA. Exploring the backlash against the #BlackLivesMatter movement, this book examines how far right governments have produced a discourse that race is no longer a problem and we now live in a post-racial society. Drawing on topical debates and supported by empirical data, this important book examines the impact of race on wider issues of inequality and difference in society.

Interviews mit ueber 200 Syrern nach der Grenzoeffnung 2015 geben einen Einblick, wie Syrer in Deutschland ueber Juden, den Nahen Osten und die deutsche Gesellschaft und Geschichte denken. Dabei zeigt sich ein differenziertes Bild. Antisemitismus ist ein Problem. Auch unter Syrern. Aber es gibt eine grosse Bandbreite von Einstellungen und Gruenden, warum Judenhass und Verschwoerungstheorien existieren oder warum sie abgelehnt werden. Dazu gehoert die syrische Staatspropaganda gegen Juden, Israel und Kurden. Der brutale Buergerkrieg hat hingegen gezeigt, dass nicht Israel der Grund allen Uebels ist. Hinzu kommen die Erfahrungen mit der Demokratie in Deutschland. Viele hoerten hier zum ersten Mal vom Holocaust. Herausforderungen einer diversen Gesellschaft?

In the last decade, Europe has welcomed numerous migrants and refugees from Arab countries. Their scholastic inclusion has been challenging, and the teaching staff had to sometimes deal with unfamiliar realities. The issue has been addressed by various perspectives, from sociology to psychology, insights from which are gathered in intercultural education. In it, there are scarcity of studies that delve into pupils' cultural backgrounds, and countries of origin's history is seldom regarded as a decisive factor in the formation of identity. Among Arabic-speaking communities the Moroccan and Syrian ones are the most significant and Morocco and Syria have interesting histories and education systems. Using Nussbaum's (2010) multifactorial analysis, this research aims to better understand the educational universe where Arabic-speaking pupils come from, focusing on humanities and religious education in the experience of pupils, especially from Morocco and Syria. Methodology comprehends qualitative empirical research conducted in Europe. Results show the differences experienced by pupils in their educational paths among diverse Arab and European countries and the more sensitive topics they encounter in their education in Europe in relation to their identity.

Oezek, Efe C., Constrained Opportunities: A Comparative Study on the Impact of Immigrant Political Incorporation on Political Transnationalism. 262 pp. 2025:3 (Springer VS, GW) <745-947>
ISBN 978-3-658-47427-0 paper ¥25,527.- (税込) EUR 109.99

This study aims to understand political transnationalism through the political incorporation of migrants in the receiving country. With a qualitative analysis of the perceptions of transnational second-generation Turks towards the political opportunity structures in Germany and the Netherlands, it seeks an answer to the question 'How do political opportunity structures in the receiving country shape political transnationalism among Turkish migrants in Western Europe?' It suggests a causal explanation for the impact of political opportunity structures on political transnationalism through a model called 'constrained opportunities'. The empirical results reveal 'constraints' on political opportunity structures that lead to deficient immigrant political incorporation in the country of residence and reinforce political attachment with the country of origin.

Mann, Barbara Alice, Indigenous Struggles in the United States: The Divide-and-Conquer Strategy of "Federal Recognition". (Springer Studies on Populism, Identity Politics and Social Justice) 187 pp. 2025:5 (Springer, GW) <745-656>
ISBN 978-3-031-85939-7 hard ¥32,490.- (税込) EUR 139.99

This book sheds light on the intricate history of Indigenous America's struggle for identity and sovereignty. Examining the utilization of a divide-and-conquer strategy through "federal recognition" in the United States, the book offers a profound analysis of the tactics employed by the U.S. government to subdue Indigenous peoples. From the early days of American colonization, the U.S. sought to eliminate Indigenous competition for land, leading to a complex interplay of alliances and divisions within Indigenous communities. This book investigates the government's systematic efforts to redefine racial identity, ultimately erasing Indigenous people from official records. The book calls for a reclamation of Indigenous America's narrative, emphasizing the importance of self-representation and unity. This compelling work challenges readers to confront the enduring consequences of historical injustices and rethink the concept of identity in a rapidly changing world.

This edited book presents many hitherto unaddressed aspects of post-genocide Rohingya lives in refugee camps in Bangladesh. Amid an everyday struggle for daily essentials, violent tensions within and outside the camps, growing anti-Rohingya sentiment in the host community as well as the decreasing international support during the repatriation process, Rohingya adolescents and youths show strategies of coping and agency to alter their present and reshape their future. An upsurge in digital literacy, mounting transnational connectivity, growing engagement with diaspora Rohingya activism and a cumulative presence in social media for sentiment mobilisation on a local and global scale has motivated them to bring about change for themselves and their community within the camps. This book accommodates such fresh and high-quality research on the Rohingya refugees living in the borderland of Bangladesh and Myanmar, conducted by acclaimed academics, professional researchers, and committed activists from across the world, for researchers and students of migration, sociology of race and ethnicity, anthropology, diaspora studies, peace and conflict studies and social work.

This book traces the construction of migrant space in Israel's urban periphery with a focus on the flat that Filipino care workers co-rent for their day-off and provides insight into the migrant lives and journeys in trans-local contexts. The author selects the flat not only as the central field site for fieldwork but also as an analytical lens for grasping the various social networks and the formation of new identities. Offering a repertoire of migrants' own narratives, she shows how the flat, as a microcosm of societal constellations of networks, provides opportunities for all sorts of new experiences. The groundbreaking ethnography contributes to migration scholarship by opening up avenues of analysis for space, community, and boundary-making in displacement and provides comprehensive insight into the dynamics of transnational labor migration. This provocative volume will be of key interest to scholars and students of migration studies, urban studies, and more broadly to anthropology and gender studies.

Dangerfield, Derek T., II, Prevention Science & Targeted Methods for HIV/STI Research with Black Sexual Minority Men. 174 pp. 2025:4 (Springer, GW) <745-237>
ISBN 978-3-031-85129-2 hard ¥23,206.- (税込) EUR 99.99

Despite substantial advances in HIV/STI treatment and prevention for general population health, sexual health disparities persist for Black gay, bisexual, and other Black sexual minority men (SMM). Strategies to build trust and overcome barriers are not well-established and solutions remain elusive. The contemporary prevention science landscape also requires updated perspectives in light of changing social policies, technological advancements, and prevention options. This book is the first to provide a comprehensive overview for sexual health prevention science using years of significant research from Dangerfield II et al. involving U.S. Black SMM in light of existing studies. This book identifies knowledge and practice gaps and proposes recommendations for innovative methods for academic collaboration with communities of practice. Researchers, clinicians, and public health practitioners will be guided through the sexual health research and intervention process using targeted contemporary studies to enhance their practice. This book serves as a valuable resource for enhancing the skills of emerging prevention scientists and clinicians. It also offers innovative strategies for experienced prevention experts to refine techniques and address persistent health disparities in sexual health outcomes. The book targets audiences across disciplines, including public health, sociology, psychology, nursing, medicine, anthropology, and population science and can be applied to marginalized communities globally. By bridging research, practice, and innovation, this book serves as a transformative resource for addressing sexual health disparities and empowering collaborative solutions to advance equity in the U.S. and around the globe.

This book uncovers the driving forces and mechanisms through which Yoruba migrant communities in Kano, the largest commercial and administrative city in northern Nigeria, and Tamale, the largest commercial and administrative city in northern Ghana, forged diaspora identities and grappled with the challenges of social inclusion and exclusion. Drawing on fieldwork interviews and archival research in particular, it analyses how socio-economic forces and power relations shaped the very different experiences of the two communities as well as how they sustained ties with the homeland in southwestern Nigeria.By contrasting Yoruba diaspora identity in northern Nigeria and Ghana, this book closely examines how citizenship and belonging, used as a form of political control during colonial rule, was further developed in the post-colonial era and furthers discourses on transnationalism and homeland politics.

26 Years a Slave represents the inaugural book-length study of the little-known "Spanish Negroes," or non-white Spanish-speaking sailors enslaved in colonial North America. Bringing to light their history of slavery and resistance, the book tells the incredible story of the free-born Juan Miranda. Enslaved in New York, Miranda fights an arduous legal battle to win his freedom. His attorney, William Kempe, makes a strong case for his rights and against slavery based on skin color. This well-illustrated account touches on legal history, the War of Jenkins' Ear, and the so-called "Slave Plot" of 1741. 26 Years a Slave is not just a translation of the critically acclaimed publication 26 anos de esclavitud but a revised enriched version, containing a selection of additional study cases. The original Spanish edition of this book received the following awards: Willi Paul Adams Award, Organization of American Historians, Bloomington, Indiana, USA (2023) Best Academic Themed Book, The 24th International Latino Book Awards, Gold medal, Los Angeles, USA (2022) The Victor Villasenor Best Latino Focused Nonfiction Book Award - Spanish or Bilingua, The 24th International Latino Book Awards, Silver medal, Los Angeles, USA (2022) Best Biography - Spanish or Bilingual, The 24th International Latino Book Awards, Silver medal, Los Angeles, USA (2022)

What explains patterns of representation - of women and ethnic minorities - in government cabinets? The authors argue governments diversify their cabinets when (1) a minority group - and it need not be ethnic - is sizable and can mobilize (political competition); and/or (2) the general population believes in and expects the inclusion of minorities (popular norms). The authors test their argument using original cabinet data from Asia and Europe (N=93) 1960-2015 and a most-similar design of four case studies. They identify the gender and ethnicity of 91,000 country-year-minister observations - with consideration of the rank of their ministerial portfolio. They find evidence that in countries where there is political competition and/or popular norms, cabinets have fewer double-hegemons. However, this does not necessarily suggest minorities are holding portfolios of substantive prestige. This project offers a way to study intersectionality in democratic representation and political institutions.

This book offers a sociological examination of the reasons why African Americans feel love toward their country in spite of continuing to perceive or experience racial prejudice and discrimination against themselves and other African Americans. Dr. Ishio conducted face-to-face, in-depth interviews with college-educated African Americans in Texas between 2014 and 2015. The main conclusion of this study is that contradictory trends marked by persistent racism and racial progress, combined with the effects of Christian faith/practice fostered in the Black Church and the effects of foundational principles of the United States, have molded a distinctive form of patriotism among African Americans for whom the country is their homeland. This book presents an insightful analysis by a Japanese sociologist.Every important finding in this book is supported by interviewees' statements, making it easy for readers to follow the points being made and to understand African Americans' perspectives. Numerous interviewees' statements are judiciously inserted so that readers can virtually "hear" interviewees' voices describing their experiences and views.A unique study of African Americans and their feelings of patriotism, it will appeal to scholars and researchers with interests in the sociology of race and ethnicity, Black studies, and the sociology of religion.

This Element compares crisis-specific policymaking, its causes and consequences, at the two levels of the EU polity during the COVID-19 and the refugee crisis 2015-16. In both crises, EU policymaking responded to exogenous pressure and was dominated by executive decision-making. Still, it also differed in three critical aspects: it was much more salient, consensual, and effective during the COVID-19 than the refugee crisis. The present study accounts for both similarities and differences, which it attempts to explain by features of the nature of the crises. The key argument of the study is that the policymaking process during crises is, to a large extent, determined by the crisis situation - the crisis-specific functional problem pressure, the institutional context (of the EU polity), and the corresponding political pressure at the origin of a given crisis.

This book delves into the experiences of Ukrainian women forced to leave their country in search of refuge following the devastating escalation of conflict with Russia in February 2022, exploring the diverse forms of capital they bring with them and develop on the way.Drawing on extensive original research, the book focuses on Ukrainian female war migrants in Poland-a country that, even before the war, served as the primary destination for Ukrainian labour migrants and now hosts a significant number of refugees. The book examines the human, social, psychological and economic capital Ukrainian women bring with them, alongside their participation in the local labour market, their mobilization of resources, and the acquisition of new skills and knowledge. Far from merely documenting this historic wave of migration, the book highlights the potential of Ukrainian women to become key agents in Ukraine's post-war reconstruction and development, by bringing social remittances such as ideas, practices, and norms, back home with them.Integrating advanced statistical analysis of data from over 340 migrants with rich qualitative insights, this book will be an important resource for researchers studying migration, security, politics, sociology, and development. It also provides valuable insights and data for NGOs and policymakers working to support Ukrainian migrants in Poland and beyond.

East Asia stands apart from the rest of Asia in the prevalence of the institutionalization of the 1951 Refugee Convention. Despite this widespread adoption of the Convention in East Asia, the record on implementation into domestic law and policy is uneven. This Element offers a comparative analysis of the gap between the institutionalization of the Refugee Convention and the implementation of refugee policy in China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and Mongolia. Specific attention is given to two key policy issues: refugee status determination-deciding who is granted government recognition as a refugee-and complementary forms of protection-protection based on statutes other than the Refugee Convention. This Element demonstrates that implementation of the Refugee Convention in East Asia depends on a vibrant civil society with the space and opportunity to engage with local UNHCR offices, local branches of international nongovernmental organizations (INGOs), and other stake holders.

Guestworker migration has become an increasingly prominent feature within the economic landscape of the Asia-Pacific. Longstanding regional disparities have underscored the emergence of fragile remittance economies where a structural reliance on labour-export has offered an unsustainable 'fix' for stubborn developmental challenges. Combining political-economic and Foucauldian frames of analysis, this Element reconciles the macroeconomic contradictions of remittance economies with the political logics bound up in emigration policymaking, contending that new modalities of governance have emerged in the transition from developmental to emigration states. Comparing the policy histories of four diverse remittance economies in the region - Myanmar, the Philippines, Samoa, and Sri Lanka - it frames emigration policies as complex, inward-facing interventions that simultaneously promote and constrain mobility to address counterpoised economic and political pressures. Important variations are explored though the example of gendered migration bans, whereby emigration states have situated women's bodies as sites for resolving contextually specific social tensions accompanying labour-export.

This book is a study of statelessness in the period of the Second World War. It breaks new ground by focusing not on Europe, but on the Asian and Pacific theatres of the conflict. This perspective enables us to go beyond Hannah Arendt's classic account of statelessness in her Origins of Totalitarianism. To her, statelessness was the product of a failed European nation-state system. We find a very different story when we examine the history of stateless people, many of them Jews, fleeing to Asia from Europe. In Asia, we see that being stateless was not a uniform experience, but a variety of possibilities reflecting the political structure of the states and cities in which refugees found shelter. We find too that stateless people managed to enter the political realm long before they reached the threshold of citizenship.

Bowser, Matthew, Containing Decolonisation: British Imperialism and the Politics of Race in Late Colonial Burma. (Studies in Imperialism) 264 pp. 2025:7 (Manchester U. Pr., UK) <744-889>
ISBN 978-1-5261-8794-9 hard ¥23,936.- (税込) GB￡ 85.00

This book examines British imperialism in late colonial Burma to study how imperialists attempted to protect their strategic and economic interests after decolonisation: they did so by supporting ethnonationalism. This process resembles the Cold War tactic of "containment," and the book makes a crucial contribution to the study of modern imperialism by demonstrating the continuity between "containment's" late- and "neo"-colonial manifestations. For Burma/Myanmar, it also explores the origin of the present-day military junta's racial regime: it emphasizes the protection of the ethnoreligious majority from ethnic minority insurgency. The Rohingya people are currently suffering a genocide because of this racial regime. As the country endures civil war against the junta, this book highlights how ethnonationalists in the late colonial period first promoted this racial regime to seize power and prevent revolution, a process supported by British imperialists for their own ends.

Whittington, Vanessa, Visitors, Settler Colonialism and Aboriginal Cultural Heritage: Australian Protected Areas as Transformative Landscapes. (Critical Studies in Heritage, Emotion and Affect) 262 pp. 2025:6 (Routledge, UK) <744-905>

This book analyses visitor responses to the interpretation of Aboriginal cultural heritage in Australian protected areas, focusing on Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park in the Northern Territory and the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area in New South Wales.It provides insights into the discursive features that structure various forms of interpretation of Aboriginal cultural heritage at these locales, ranging from on-site interpretative signage to audio tours available on mobile phone applications. It draws on visitors' first-hand accounts of the experience of participating in Traditional Custodian led cultural tours and camps, and the visitor learnings that resulted from these. Based on extensive interviews with visitors, the author argues that visitor responses to these experiences both perpetuate and challenge settler-colonial assumptions about Aboriginal peoples and their cultures in both more urban and remote locations. The book provides insight into the forms of interpretation that foster visitor transformations, thereby advancing a politics of reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, and the types of interpretation that may hinder such transformations, by reinforcing settler-colonial discourses and affective states.The book is aimed at students and academics attempting to develop a more critical practice in relation to heritage interpretation, tourism, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural heritage and settler-colonialism. It will also have appeal to heritage professionals, cultural tour operators and agencies responsible for the provision of protected area interpretation, including both government sector and Indigenous organisations.

Natarajan, Kalathmika, Coolie Migrants, Indian Diplomacy: Caste, Class and Indenture Abroad, 1914-67. 320 pp. 2025:9 (Hurst, UK) <744-912>

Uncovers the remarkable role of emigration, particularly of indentured labourers, in forging independent India's foreign relations. Over the centuries, millions of migrant labourers sailed from the Indian subcontinent, across the Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean, to shape what is now the world's largest diaspora. This book recovers the histories and legacies of those 'coolie' migrants, and presents a new paradigm for the diplomatic history of independent India, going beyond high politics to explore how indenture, emigration and international relations became entangled. After independence, Indian notions of the international realm as a sanctified space were shaped by migrant journeys; this was a space of anxiety in which to negotiate the 'coolie stain' on the country's reputation. Discourse was defined by intersections of caste, class, race and gender-and framed the migrant worker as the quintessential 'other' of Indian diplomacy. Drawing on rich, multi-archival analysis spanning the vast geographies of labour migration, Kalathmika Natarajan pieces together the stories of quarantine camps en route to Ceylon; cultural and educational missions in the Caribbean; discretionary passport policies in India; and the mediation of immigrant life in Britain. The result is a nuanced history from the interwar period to the decades after independence, and a critical analysis centring both caste and negotiation of 'undesirable' mobility as foundational to Indian diplomacy.

Bachelet, Sebastien, The Adventure: Violent Borders, Illegal Migration, and the Uncertain Quest for Life in Morocco. (New Ethnographies) 256 pp. 2025:7 (Manchester U. Pr., UK) <744-933>
ISBN 978-1-5261-7768-1 hard ¥7,040.- (税込) GB￡ 25.00

This ethnographic exploration of irregular migration from Western and Central Africa in Morocco deconstructs dehumanising narratives of a "migration crisis" and a "sub-Saharan problem" in politics of migration. The book provides an original focus on how migrants understood and experienced their entrapped mobility. The emic notion of "the adventure" at the heart of this study sheds light on a transformative, epic quest to carve out a better life and future. The book traces how young men from Western and Central Africa sought to assert themselves as agents of their own destinies, despite uncertain, illegalising processes. In steering away from aesthetics of despair and fearmongering narratives, the book brings new insights into inter-disciplinary debates (e.g. illegality, uncertainty, immobility, violence, suffering, transit, etc.). Such focus is essential to draw out the complexity and existential depth of (irregular) migrants' lives, journeys, and stories.

ISBN 978-1-032-69211-1 hard ¥14,921.- (税込) GB￡ 52.99

This book explores the recent academic and practice-based research and thinking on race, diversity and social mobility within the public relations industry, arguing for the necessity of more transformative actions to address systemic inequities. Through an analysis of interviews with UK-based public relations practitioners from a wide range of backgrounds, the book integrates and illustrates different strands of research to shed light on persistent challenges and opportunities in the field and understand how those who are often the subjects of such discussions experience discrimination. The authors introduce complex topics in an accessible manner, providing an overview of recent research, demonstrating practical applications of theoretical frameworks, and suggesting reading for further exploration. It also includes additional pedagogical features which allow readers to explore specific topics through guided reading and exploratory questions. By grounding its analysis in the lived experiences of public relations practitioners, the book contributes to the literature of race, diversity, and social mobility while fostering discussion on the systematic discrimination faced by practitioners. It will help and encourage researchers, educators and practitioners to critically explore their own practice and open up new conversations about this crucial issue.

Botz-Bornstein, Thorsten (ed.), Tracking Global Wokeism. (Value Inquiry Book Series / Social Philosophy 407) 325 pp. 2025:6 (Brill, NE) <744-51>
ISBN 978-90-04-72779-3 hard ¥33,654.- (税込) EUR 145.00

In this volume, nineteen authors ask: does wokeness exist in the non-Western world? And if yes, is it imported from America or can it also have its own vernacular roots? Wokeness has helped advance the cause of social justice in many domains. However, a cursory search on the internet can yield the impression that 'woke' is now predominantly used in a negative fashion. The present book approaches woke from unusual philosophical angles that do not adhere to either pro or counter positions but that try to transcend purely ideological perspectives. The book shifts the debate to an international or global level by asking whether Wokeism also exists in the non-Western world. ?????

Building The City elaborates new critical insights into the everyday lives of migrant workers in cities around the world.The book offers complementary blending of longstanding political-economic accounts of migration, gender, labour, and urban life alongside advances in feminist, postcolonial, post-structural, materialist, and more-than-representational thinking. Drawing on these critical resources the authors explore the complexities of migrant's everyday past, present, and future lives. More specifically, they interrogate diverse and heterogeneous connections between work, domestic, and family times and spaces as well as foregrounding new theoretical and empirical terrain regarding consumption, pleasure, leisure, fashioned, sexual identities, and digital lives within and beyond cities.Premised on ethnographic research undertaken in cities across China the authors develop detailed relational comparative dialogue with the most up-to-date international interdisciplinary research.This critically challenging yet engaging and accessible research monograph provides an excellent resource for scholars at all career stages as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students in diverse disciplines including anthropology, cultural studies, economics, management, organisational and business studies, human geography, planning, political science, sociology, and urban studies.

Theodoropoulos, Panos, The Precarious Migrant Worker: The Socialization of Precarity. 224 pp. 2025:5 (Polity Pr., UK) <744-325>

Migrant workers in the West are at the frontline of the precarious condition that is coming to dominate economic life in neoliberal societies. Yet despite the highly insecure and exploitative working conditions they routinely face, labour mobilizations by precarious workers are rare.In this immersive portrait of the daily realities of precarious migrant labour, Panos Theodoropoulos found work in Glasgow's warehouses, factories and kitchens to uncover the ways that precarity is lived and contested. Connecting the realms of structure, subjectivity and culture, his analysis shows that precarity not only dictates workers' labour conditions, but socializes them in an individualist, survival-oriented struggle that erodes solidarities and enforces its own neoliberal logic. Crucially, however, precarity and the wider neoliberal culture are unable to erase workers' material awareness and experience of class injustice. It is on this basis that the foundations of new forms of struggle must be laid. Blending interviews, ethnographic notes and social theory, The Precarious Migrant Worker offers a unique glimpse into our increasingly precarious social reality and will be a valuable resource for scholars, students and activists interested in issues of migration, precarity and resistance.

ISBN 978-1-032-99122-1 hard ¥40,832.- (税込) GB￡ 145.00

Lamb tells the stories of an unusual collection of men who, by being aliens in a largely unwelcoming country, have been omitted from the historical narrative. More than a dozen of these medical practitioners arrived and contributed to the welfare of Australian communities during the hundred years prior to the dismantling of race-based immigration policies, and this book examines not only what they achieved, but the political, social and economic context in which they operated and the prejudice with which they dealt.Through its forensic investigation of archival materials both in Japan and Australia, as well as contact with descendants of the men, this study book throws unprecedented light on their trials and tribulations, and on the factors most important in determining acceptance and performance in a discriminatory environment. Moreover, through its many illustrations, explanations and general narrative, it draws the reader into the personal lives of the doctors and what they faced. At the same time, its inclusion of detailed mortality and morbidity statistics, and their analysis in conjunction with population and economic parameters, will doubtless prove an important resource for medical historians. In its depth of research and access to relevant information in both countries and languages, this book contributes to Australia-Japan relations and understanding, and sets a new standard in cross-cultural research.A valuable resource for Australian and Japanese researchers and students of international immigration, medical history, the politics and character of racism, Asian Studies and International Relations. Migrant narratives further enjoy broad international appeal in countries including Asia, the United States and Europe.

"The book represents an innovative and outstanding contribution to the economic, social, and business history of Argentina. It focuses on the factors that conditioned the emergence and development, between 1930 and the early 1960s, of large industrial enterprises founded by Jewish immigrants, with emphasis on the absence of community financial institutions to support their creation and expansion. lt is characterized both by the relevance of the issues it addresses and by the author's ability to conduct original and solid research based on a non-dogmatic conceptual framework, on the analysis of a wide variety of unexplored sources, and the virtuous combination of different scales of observation."

International migration is a growing phenomenon in the 21st century and is increasingly seen as a high-priority public policy issue by many governments, politicians, and the broader public throughout the world. Its importance to economic prosperity, human development, and safety and security ensures that it will remain a top priority for the foreseeable future.This book highlights the importance of ensuring that we remain focused on the successes of migration as well as the challenges. At the end of the 20th century, more importance was given to immigrant and ethnic minority entrepreneurship, due to a positive impact on local economic growth and overall economic development in the hosting nations. In the 21st century, the imperative of the United Nations 2030 agenda involves a deeper understanding of the complex challenges for the achievement of sustainable goals. One of these challenges is to understand how migrant-entrepreneurs may or may not identify with their ethnic community, therefore dissociating themselves from their ethnic group. In this sense, religion and ethnicity are differentiating factors between social groups, and the relationships allows preserving their culture and establishing relationships and integration in the community at all levels. This edited volume brings together impactful contributions that will interest multidisciplinary academic areas and aims to contribute to the enhancement of scientific knowledge on the intersection of entrepreneurship, migration, ethnicity and religion, a gap in the existing literature that has the potential to provide a deeper understanding of factors that influence migrant populations' contribution to socio-economic development in their communities.This book will be an invaluable resource to researchers and scholars in the fields of Immigration, Immigrant Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurial culture and Economic Development.

Migration in the Americas continues unabated. Seeking to improve understanding of the complexity of this phenomenon, this book presents different approaches that are at the root of an immigrant-entrepreneur's decision-making and the implementation of entrepreneurial activity in North and South America.The cases presented provide a knowledge base upon which policy makers, government agencies, and the like can draw, providing a basis for comparison for other countries regarding how and why immigrants decide to become entrepreneurs, the challenges they face and the contributions they make. In this sense, the book presents a overview of immigrant entrepreneurship in the Americas. The studies presented include the cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds behind the reasons for starting a business in the host community, as well as the factors that influence the choice of business area. Furthermore, it explores how this type of entrepreneur contributes to local and sustainable and economic development and will deepen the understanding of immigrants' triggers for emigrating and for engaging in entrepreneurship in the host society. Based on the studies presented, it will offer guidelines regarding policies to support immigrant entrepreneurs, as well as to outline future research avenues.This book will be an invaluable resource to researchers and scholars in the fields of Immigration, Immigrant Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurial culture and Economic Development.

The book challenges conventional paradigms of cultural conformity and examines how these young adults define themselves beyond simplistic labels.Erased Voices and Unspoken Heritage offers fresh perspectives on why some second-generation migrants embrace, reject, or negotiate their heritage languages. It also critiques the harmful consequences of "passing" within homogenous constructs and highlights the broader implications for diversity, hybridity, and multilingualism. This thought-provoking book will appeal to anyone interested in the complexities of identity, race, and language in multicultural societies.

ISBN 978-1-5261-7947-0 hard ¥25,344.- (税込) GB￡ 90.00

This book offers the first examination of extremist Heathenry and occultism in the UK and how anti-racist Heathens act to counter this discourse. It explores the spectrum of Heathen practice today and the historical origins of racist Heathenry in nineteenth century Germanic romanticism and twentieth century folkish nationalism. Treating each of the three main extremist Heathen organisations, the book extends the analysis to the neo-Nazi occult organization the Order of the Nine Angles (O9A), and the wider racist Heathen cultural scene in Black Metal and Dark Folk music. The authors balance this with discussion of how inclusivist Heathens are countering this discourse, from visible protests at far-right rallies to inter-faith forums and an active presence on social media platforms. The book makes an important contribution to the intersecting fields of new religious movements, nationalist history and racist politics.

This edited collection addresses the important study of the conditions that support positive intergroup contact that leads to intergroup friendships and prejudice reduction through a multidisciplinary lens. Employing Intergroup Contact Theory and Intergroup Friendships Theory as conceptual foundations, this book brings together researchers in psychology, sociology, and education.European societies are increasingly diverse spaces in which children, adolescents and adults of different racial and ethnic backgrounds, religious beliefs, and cultural-linguistic practices interact daily. These spaces provide fertile ground for a continuum of relational experiences, from positive intergroup relationships and friendships to tensions and experiences of discrimination, marginalization and isolation. Bergamaschi, Pica and their contributors examine the psychological and sociological conditions, as well as the pedagogical interventions that can shape interactions among young people. The book will be of great interest to academics and students across disciplines, educators, policy makers, and activists interested in how to support intercultural societies and schools towards the goal of reduced prejudice and discrimination towards a more intercultural and just society. A valuable read for scholars of the sociology of multiethnic society and the role of education and school environments.

This book examines how Cambodian American high school youth reconcile stereotypes, identities, and school opportunities and the ways these factors impact academic achievement and well-being, through ethnographic research.The backdrop for Cambodian American life is intimately embedded within how Asians and Asian Americans are imagined within U.S. society. This book argues that how Cambodian American students negotiate certain identities are in relation to perceived advantages associated with ethnic and panethnic labels across varying social contexts. It highlights how the embrace of the model minority stereotype can come at a psychological cost for Asian Americans including increased feelings of internalized racism. The chapters draw on ethnographic research collected across 2 years in one Southern California community. Through students' own meaning-making, it shows readers how Cambodian American youth are simultaneously invisible and hyper-visible in their school and community, which shape access to important identities and relationships. This work invites interrogation of the Asian American category itself and seeks to move the fields of Asian American and educational studies forward by critically examining not only how the model minority stereotype is constructed and imposed but also how it can be adopted and affirmed by Asian American youth themselves.Practitioners who work with marginalized and underrepresented students, students of courses such as Asian American studies, Anthropology, Cultural Studies, Education and Psychology will find this to be a helpful and enlightening text. The accessible and clear writing means this book will also be of interest to a general audience.

In recent decades, the forced displacement of populations has fueled nationalism and xenophobia across the world, arousing fear and hostility. Policies have been implemented to deter migrants, crack down on humanitarian workers and externalize border monitoring in remote territories. Men, women and children who flee political violence, religious persecution or poverty in their country and set off on journeys often lasting years may find themselves on dangerous routes where they face police brutality, gang rackets, confinement camps, barbed-wire fences, the rigors of the desert and the perils of the sea. Many lose their lives. But what do we really know about the experience of these people, the hazards they encounter, repression they endure, and the assistance they receive? This is what Didier Fassin and Anne-Claire Defossez set out to uncover through the research they conducted at the border between Italy and France, in a region of the Alps that has become, since the mid-2010s, a privileged site of passage for people arriving in Europe from Afghanistan, Iran, the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa. Over a period of five years, they collected their poignant stories, participated in the activities of a shelter, took part in mountain rescue operations, interviewed politicians, policy makers and law enforcement officers. Their investigation reveals the ineffectiveness of the militarization of the border and the dismay of the police who are aware of the futility of their mission; it attests to the solidarity and commitment of the volunteers; and it explores the form of life of exiles, which has become a defining feature of our time. This timely and well-researched book will be of great value to students and scholars in sociology, anthropology, politics and geography, and to anyone interested in migration and refugees today.

This volume outlines powerful theoretical and methodological approaches for expanding the possibilities of educational research. By illuminating speculative education as an emerging scholarly practice, this collection offers pragmatic guidance for scholarly worldbuilding.It introduces "speculative education" as a critical and hopeful approach to educational research. Through empirical scholarship, the book describes paradigms of collective thriving beyond the existing horizons guiding research, policy, and practice in educational research. The collection of scholarship here offers visionary and future-oriented approaches to teaching and learning that operate beyond the bounds of current social, economic, and cultural arrangements that perpetuate various forms of oppression. Through specific examples and a collection of thematic interludes, this collection details a framework through which educational researchers and practitioners can enact speculative dreaming. This speculative framework seeks to foreground ethical relations as the basis of civic trust; foster an ethos of collaborative practice as the work of world-building; and engage in joyful struggle toward just futures. Ultimately, this volume highlights how researchers, designers, educators, and individuals linked in community with each other must question the intended outcomes of educational scholarship writ large and if the priors of academic scholarship actually lead toward destinations of freedom. In recognizing the pluralistic nature of speculative worlds that might be built, the possibilities for new educational models and experiences are boundless.This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of the Learning Sciences.

Reflecting on contemporary epistemologies of European Blackness Long absent from research in the humanities and social sciences, Black people in continental Europe have become the focus of a growing body of literature in the past two decades that addresses their unique history and social positioning. Black Studies in Europe: An Anthology of Soil and Seeds brings together essays and case studies by a collective of scholars, writers, and activists to offer a critical overview of the emerging field of Black European studies and a vital reflection on contemporary epistemologies of European Blackness. This collection addresses key questions: What is Blackness from a European standpoint? Which epistemologies and theoretical tools have been used to offer a better understanding of Black experiences in Europe? How is this knowledge being produced and by whom? Can we define a common European conceptual framework for Black studies? Related to this work is an even more urgent enterprise: forging an epistemological distinction between the study of Black people and "Black studies" as an emancipatory project.
