Opis

This volume offers an ethnographic look at food sending and receiving practices among migrants in different regional contexts. For migrants and their families separated by migration, food circuits are a powerful and sensuous source of connection, which can help to maintain, reinforce and in some cases even create new transnational connections. The book takes food parcels as a material through with to think about relationships, consumption, exchange, and other fundamental anthropological concerns in changing societies, examining them in relation to wider transnational spaces. The book also contributes to a sensorial approach to social change by examining migrants and their families' experiences of global connectedness through familiar objects and narratives. By bringing in in-depth ethnographic insights from diverse social and economic contexts, the volumes widens our understanding of development experiences and moves beyond the divide between developing and developed countries; it contributors to our understanding of development by showing how global connections are experienced at a local level. Ethnographic chapters cover different geographic locations and migration routes (in Europe, Africa, America and Asia), as well as different types of migrants, including international students, asylum seekers, low-skilled labour migrants, irregular migrants or family migration.
