Bringing together scholars and practitioners from a range of
disciplinary backgrounds working in Europe, North and South
America, South Asia and the Middle East, this volume explores the
question of how to ensure that migration research feeds back into
improving the lives of migrants. It emphasises the necessarily
interdisciplinary and cross-boundary nature of migration research,
offering methodological recommendations to anyone studying or
working in the field, and showing how migration studies can
usefully affect real contexts by better exploring the potential
that exists for both bridging academic disciplines and building
links with work that occurs beyond strictly academic forums.
Organised around the themes of methodological considerations and
interdisciplinary approaches, the experiences of migrants as
researchers and interaction between practitioners, policy-makers
and academics, Migration Across Boundaries discusses the realities
of the discourses that surround international migration, examining
the proper role of academia in bringing together a range of
stakeholders to formulate dialogic approaches to understanding
migration. An international and interdisciplinary contribution to
our understanding of how research in migration can be brought to
bear on the experiences of migrants and linked to the work of
activists, artists and policy-makers, this book will appeal not
only to scholars and students of migration across the social
sciences, but also to those working in the fields of migrant
advocacy and activism.
