The increased presence of Somalis has brought much change to East
African towns and cities in recent decades, change that has met
with ambivalence and suspicion, especially within Kenya. This
volume demystifies Somali residence and mobility in urban East
Africa, showing its historical depth, and exploring the social,
cultural and political underpinnings of Somali-led urban
transformation. In so doing, it offers a vivid case study of the
transformative power of (forced) migration on urban centres, and
the intertwining of urbanity and mobility. The volume will be of
interest for readers working in the broader field of migration, as
well as anthropology and urban studies.
