N2  - "Grounded in both the historical longevity of cultural migration and its particular qualities in contemporary society, the essays that comprise The Culture of Migration: Politics, Aesthetics and Histories, take a broad view of the negotiations between subjects in movement and the geopolitical terrains they traverse. The volume never forgets the politicised dimensions of migration and the sometimes difficult experiences of individual migrants, yet the essays are wonderfully hopeful of the power of the arts to provide spaces in which identities and meanings can coalesce and be understood across differences. This is an empowering book that brings a range of voices and practices together to rethink the legacies of the past and the possibilities of our futures. In this careful orchestration of ideas and images, the editors of The Culture of Migration have managed to redraw the lines of politicised aesthetics in new and nuanced configurations. The Culture of Migration explores the ways in which culture and the arts have been transformed by migration in recent decades, and in turn how these cultural and aesthetic transformations have contributed to shaping our identities, politics, and societies."
