Ethno-Architecture and the Politics of Migration explores the
interface between migration and architecture. Cities have been
substantially affected by transnational migration but the physical
manifestations of migration in architecture - and its effect on
streetscape, neighbourhood and city - have so far been
understudied. This contributed volume examines how migrants
interact with, adapt, and construct new architecture. Looking at
the physical, urban and cultural impact of these changes on a
variety of sites, the authors explore architecture as an identity
category and investigate what buildings and places associated with
migration tell us about central questions of belonging, culture,
community, and home in regions such as North America, Australia and
the UK. An important contribution to debates on place identity and
the transformation of places as a result of mobility and globalised
economies in the 21st century.
