More so than other world regions, the Caribbean has been characterized as an always already colonial region. It has long been a key area for empires warring over influence spheres in the new world, and where migration waves from Africa, Europe, and Asia accompanied every political transformation over the last five centuries. In \u003ci\u003eCaribbean Migrations\u003c\/i\u003e, an interdisciplinary group of humanities and social science scholars study migration from a long-term perspective, analyzing the Caribbean's \"unincorporated subjects\" from a legal, historical, and cultural standpoint, and exploring how despite often fractured public spheres, Caribbean intellectuals, artists, filmmakers, and writers have been resourceful at showcasing migration as the hallmark of our modern age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anke Birkenmaier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1978814496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781978814493\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rutgers University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2021","brand":"Anke Birkenmaier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43978498375935,"sku":"9781978814493","price":51.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e9ea5152-33f5-4121-86f9-8025f3c562ee.jpg?v=1683241877","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/caribbean-migrations-anke-birkenmaier-9781978814493","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
