Mediating Migration
Radha Sarma Hegde
Media practices and the everyday cultures of transnational migrants are deeply interconnected.Mediating Migrationnarrates aspects of the migrant experience as shaped by the technologies of communication and the social, political and cultural configurations of neoliberal globalization. The book examines the mediated reinventions of transnational diasporic cultures, the emergence of new publics, and the manner in which nations and migrants connect. By placing migration and media practices in the same frame, the book offers a wide-ranging discussion of the contested politics of mobility and transnational cultures of diasporic communities as they are imagined, connected, and reproduced by various groups, individuals, and institutions. Drawing on current events, activism, cultural practices, and crises concerning immigration, this book is organized around themes  legitimacy, recognition, publics, domesticity, authenticity  that speak to the entangled interconnections between media and migration.
