Abstract

The book "Migration, Culture, and Identity: Making Home Away: Politics of Citizenship and Migration" edited by Yasmine Shamma, Suzan Ilcan, Vicki Squire, and Helen Underhill explores the concept of homemaking in the context of migration and displacement. The book draws from various disciplines and emphasizes the fluid and ongoing nature of migrants' experiences and views of home. The chapters discuss themes such as historicity and temporality, testimonies and archives, and hostility and care. The book challenges fixed categories of home, nation, citizenship, and migration, and highlights the importance of migrants' everyday experiences. [Extracted from the article]
