At a time when thousands of refugees risk their lives undertaking
perilous journeys by boat across the Mediterranean, this
multidisciplinary volume could not be more pertinent. It offers
various contemporary case studies of boat migrations undertaken by
asylum seekers and refugees around the globe and shows that boats
not only move people and cultural capital between places, but also
fuel cultural fantasies, dreams of adventure and hope, along with
fears of invasion and terrorism. The ambiguous nature of memories,
media representations and popular culture productions are
highlighted throughout in order to address negative stereotypes and
conversely, humanize the individuals involved.
