Abstract

Migration, identity, and space are entangled and mutually influential. The question “How does migration take place” not only demands an examination of the causes, consequences, and depictions of migration in different parts of the world and different moments in history, it also calls attention to the crucial role that space and place have in such an examination. The approaches and methodologies in this collection differ with regard to the questions these ask and the evidence they use to substantiate their claims. Yet in spite of these differences, a number of shared themes emerge. While differentiating voluntary migration from forced migration is important, what makes these very diverse experiences comparable is the undeniable relationship with the physical and imaginary space that they traverse and eventually occupy.

UNESCO, for example, defines displacement as “the forced movement of people from their locality or environment and occupational activities. It is a form of social change caused by a number of factors, the most common being armed conflict. Natural disasters, famine, development and economic changes may also be a cause of displacement.” http://www.unesco.org/new/en/social-and-human-sciences/themes/international-migration/glossary/displaced-person-displacement/.

The 1951 Refugee Convention spells out that a refugee is someone who “owing to a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality, and is unable to, or owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country.”
