Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This study undertakes a systematic exploration of the intricate interconnections among power, spatial dynamics, and geopolitical identity, and aims to deepen our comprehension of the multifaceted challenges and nuanced opportunities inherent in negotiating citizenship and the contours of belonging within the complexities of an unpredictable global milieu. The book analyzes the development of nationalist narratives and their role in perpetuating exclusionary frameworks that marginalize certain demographic groups and uphold hierarchical notions of belonging. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the chapters examine the various reasons contributing to displacement, including state-driven programs of engineered displacement and environmental influences such as climate change, resource depletion, and natural disasters. Their research emphasizes upon marginalized areas of displacement, examining how these locations serve as centers of resistance and foster alternative forms of belonging.
