Reviews

'Although migration has become synonymous with international migration, this volume demonstrates that internal migration remains as potent a force as ever in shaping the lives of individuals and communities. In so doing, this volume reflects the full diversity of methods and topics in the contemporary study of this subject area and reclaims the rightful place of the study of internal migration within the field of migration studies.' Thomas J. Cooke, University of Connecticut, USA 'A must-read that should become a feature on all migration scholars' bookshelves. Situating migration in the general rhythms of lives , this text restates the importance of internal migration processes in contemporary society. With the daily media focusing primarily on international migration, this volume makes the compelling case that mobility within nations plays a central role in reshaping cultural, economic, political and social relations.' Paul Boyle, University of Leicester, UK
