Homecomings Unsettling Paths of Return

Homecomings explores the forces and motives that drive immigrants, war refugees, political exiles, and their descendants back to places of origin. By including a range of homecoming experiences, Markowitz and Stefansson destabilize key oppositions and terminologies that have vexed migration studies for decades.
