This edited collection interrogates the diversity of transnational
migration experiences in the Asia-Pacific through the lens of
digital ethnography in order to explore the transformative effects
digital media plays in these experiences. While there has been work
on the various ways in which internet communication technologies
(ICTs) particularly mobile communication allows for various forms
of connectivity between individuals and groups in this age of hyper
(transnational) mobility, there is a scarcity on the way digital
media presents challenges, creates agency and alters relationships
within the broad umbrella of the transnational migration
experience. The authors in this collection- who come from diverse
disciplinary backgrounds across social, cultural, education and
communication research - present cutting edge cross and trans
disciplinary analyses of transnational migration where digital
media becomes a creative, if not fundamental avenue, for migrants
to develop new strategies for dealing with their cross-border
mobilities.
