This book addresses prominent debates in Western Europe and the
United States on themes as seemingly diverse as national identity
and nostalgia, migration and integration, gender relations and
'caring communities'. At the most fundamental level, all of these
debates deal with the right to belong and the ability to 'feel at
home'. The book examines what has happened to the 'home feelings'
of the majority under the influence of the two major revolutions of
our times: the gender revolution and increased mobility due to
globalization. It analyzes how 'home' has been politicized,
examines the risks of this politicization, as well as exploring
alternative home-making strategies that aim to transcend the 'logic
of identities' where one group's ability to feel at home comes at
the expense of other groups.
