This volume reveals the historical dynamism of what appears at
first sight to be a forgotten backwater. Meganisi is one of the
smallest and most remote of the Greek Ionian islands. From another
point of view, it is the centre of the world, and its sailors
travel literally from China to Peru while its migrants maintain
familial connections from Johannesburg to Montreal. The villages of
Meganisi are tightly-knit communities and this detailed
ethnographic study explores the basis on which the islanders'
solidarity and sense of identity are constructed andreconstructed
despite population mobility and economic change: the values,
sentiments and structures of kinship and family. Series Editors:
Wendy James & N.J. Allen
