After a year of intensive study of migration, including a summer of dissertation style immersion, Lali and I could just not get enough. We both feel passionately about migration studies and wanted to continue to research and write about migration issues. But more than that, we wanted to bring quality writing on migration to the public.
Journals are prohibitively expensive for most individuals outside of large academic institutions, but information and intelligent discourse should not cost you money.
So, welcome. Over the next month or so, we will get this blog up and running. There will be a twitter account soon, and other social media related ventures. We’re just getting started, and we’re a bit shiny, so please consider joining us in this venture!
Best,
