Imagining Home. Migrants and the Search for a New Belonging

This is an interdisciplinary volume which explores the many facets of migration and the consequences of displacement on the biographies of those individuals who undertake the experience. The main assumption of the volume is that the migrants' sense of disorientation about their home and their sense of belonging - which can be a consequence of the pluralisation of self-identities, languages, biographical plans and places that inevitably occurs in a migratory experience - turns out to be a more or less active search for a new home and a new sense of belonging.
