The field of anthropology of migration and multiculturalism is
booming. Throughout its hundred-odd year history, studies of
migration and diverse or 'plural' societies have arguably been both
marginal and central to the discipline of Anthropology. However,
recent years have witnessed the rapid growth of anthropological
studies concerning these topics. This has particularly been the
case since the 1970s, when anthropologists developed a keen
interest in the subject of ethnicity, especially in post-migration
communities. Since the 1990s, migrant transnationalism has become
one of the most fashionable topics. There is still much to do in
research and theory surrounding this field, not least with regard
to contemporary public debates around multiculturalism, immigration
and 'integration' policy. This book presents essays pointing toward
a number of possible new directions - both theoretical and
methodological - for anthropological inquiry into migration and
multiculturalism, including innovative ways of examining diversity
discourses, urban conditions, social complexities, scales of
analysis, transnational marriages, entangled politics and
interwoven cultures. This book was published as a special issue of
the Ethnic and Racial Studies.
