Opis

Ethiopians in the Age of Migration is a multi-disciplinary exploration of Ethiopian migrants and the global Ethiopian diaspora, born out of the social and cultural space created by local and transnational conflict. The book is an important contribution to a largely overlooked country and to the wider field of migration studies, which lies at the core of ongoing globalization. This book was originally published as a special issue of African and Black Diaspora: An International Journal.
