Caribbean Journeys: An Ethnography of Migration and Home in Three Family Networks
“Building on her previous work on historical consciousness, nationalism, and transnationalism, Karen Fog Olwig outlines a new direction for migration studies. By highlighting the ways that individuals’ personal understandings of their migratory experiences are connected to foundational family narratives, Olwig broadens understanding of belonging and diaspora.”—Deborah A. Thomas, author ofModern Blackness: Nationalism, Globalization, and the Politics of Culture in Jamaica
