On the Move: Mobility and Identity

Edited by Yolande Daniels (Columbia University, New York)

On the Move: Mobility and Identity will not be a strictly academic
collection, nor will it be addressed to students only. It is designed to
include travel narratives, art, creative and critical writing on the subject
of mobility, migrations and travel, immigration, borders and barriers of
communication; the net, the street and the community; diasporas, and
cross-cultural encounters. So far, we have works and commitments from the
US, UK, Canada, Eastern and Western Europe, Latin America, the Caribbean,
Africa, Asia and Australia.


Present titles include: Better Passports; "Cyborg-Diaspora": Observations
from the 'Cyber'field; Darker Than Blue: British Black Experience of Home
and Abroad; Sketching the Black Difference; From Brooklyn to Maui; Stranger
in My Own Land; Vampire Hunting in Transylvania; Mobility: Tourism and
Capital; Disability, Mobility and Identity; Reciprocating the Gaze: Heart of
Whiteness, Caryl Phillips, European Tribes and Hospitality; Through the
Immigrants Eyes: From Polish Village to Greenwich Village; Going West.
Contingency and Recognition in Eastern European feminist writers; Dangerous
Borders; On Becoming a German; Trajectories of the Filipino Diaspora; Two
Jewish short stories from California; British Expatriate Experience; Irish
Immigration Poetry; Gore Vidal: A Way in Life; New Formations of Nomadism in
the Globalised World; Sharing Technology; Journeying Through IRC: A
