Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Ethnographic case studies explore what it means to "belong" in Oceania, as contributors consider ongoing formations of place, self and community in connection with travelling, internal and international migration. The chapters apply the multi-dimensional concepts of movement, place-making and cultural identifications to explain contemporary life in Oceanic societies. The volume closes by suggesting that constructions of multiple belongings--and, with these, the relevant forms of mobility, place-making and identifications--are being recontextualized and modified by emerging discourses of climate change and sea-level rise.

Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.
