Moving Places draws together contributions from Europe, Latin
America, Asia, and Africa, exploring practices and experiences of
movement, non-movement, and place-making. The book centers on
"moving places": places with locations that are not fixed but
relative. Locations appearing to be reasonably stable, such as home
and homeland, are in fact always subject to practices, imaginaries,
and politics of movement. Bringing together original ethnographic
contributions with a clear theoretical focus, this volume spans the
fields of anthropology, human geography, migration, and border
studies, and serves as teaching material in related programs.
The edited collection is a fresh contribution to the
anthropological, sociological, and geographical explorations of
time-space in Southeast Europe and Albania in particular. By
delving into various levels of people's daily lives, such as
literature, relation to the environment, the urbanization process,
art, photography, trauma and remembering, processes of modernity,
the volume vividly portrays various realms that are lived and
perceived. It largely builds on the premise that structural
resemblances of the past continuously reappear in particular social
and cultural moments and seek to restore and build the individual
and collective lives in contemporary Albania.
