The Palgrave Handbook of South–South Migration and Inequality
This open access handbook examines the phenomenon of South-South migration and its relationship to inequality in the Global South, where at least a third of all international migration takes place. Drawing on contributions from nearly 70 leading migration scholars, mainly from the Global South, the handbook challenges dominant conceptualisations of migration, offering new perspectives and insights that can inform theoretical and policy understandings and unlock migration’s development potential. The handbook is divided into four parts, each highlighting often overlooked mobility patterns within and between regions of the Global South, as well as the inequalities faced by those who move. Key cross-cutting themes include gender, race, poverty and income inequality, migration decision making, intermediaries, remittances, technology, climate change, food security and migration governance. The handbook is an indispensable resource on South-South migration and inequality for academics, researchers, postgraduates and development practitioners.
New Directions in South-South Migration
This open access book offers a comprehensive understanding of South-South migration. It explores crucial migration themes such as migrant integration in urban areas, migration and rural transformation, urban migration policy environment, migration corridors, and migrant precarity and survival, especially food security. It features contributions from eminent scholars in the Global South, namely, Africa, Asia, Latin America & Caribbean and the Middle East. Chapters in the book present theoretical perspectives and practical case studies building on the results of detailed surveys, in-depth interviews, field observations and other materials. The book highlights new findings and research outputs from recent and ongoing collaborative projects between multiple researchers from the Global South and North. The book is intended for researchers, graduate students and teachers of geography, social policy, refugees and migration studies, history, international development and urban studies. This is an open access book.
Narratives of Precarious Migrancy in the Global South
This volume sets out to challenge and expand Anglophone literary migration studies in the global North with a two-fold approach. It proposes precarious migrancy as a conceptual framework to capture hitherto neglected aspects of subaltern displacement, and it turns to the global South as a site of knowledge production about migration. The chapters discuss literary narratives originally written in Chinese, Kurdish and Italian as well as English, and covering a wide geographical range, to ask what experiences and understandings of migration emerge from Southern perspectives. Across the volume, precarious migrancy emerges as a key concept for understanding contemporary globalization in general and migration in the global South in particular. The chapters offer significant reconceptualizations of precarity and migrancy by reading Southern literatures of migration as a mode of theorization of the contemporary world, contributing to the ongoing shift in framings of migration in Anglophone and postcolonial literary studies. This volume will be of significant interest to scholars in literary migration studies, global South studies, and postcolonial studies. It offers readings of rarely studied literary texts, as well as new concepts for scholars interested in understanding the nexus of literature and migration today.
