Imaginaries of Migration: Life Stories of Mexican Migrants in Germany
Rating: 0 out of 5 stars
()
About this ebook
How do Mexican migrants in Germany perceive themselves and their lives? Innovatively combining theories of interculturality and social imaginaries, Yolanda López García uses the anthropological method of life stories to investigate the understudied area of Mexican migration to Germany. She discusses areas such as quality of life as a motivation for migration, the role of banal nationalism in imaginaries, the dynamic subjective re-construction of Mexicanness, and the process of (imagined) »Germanisation«. Yolanda López García ultimately argues that individuals, as social agents, engage with and construct new emerging imaginaries, which may be viewed as important engines of social change.

Emilio Garcia, Brenda Vale and Robert Vale Springer, 2021 Collapse is a strong word. To me, it means an object, a building, say, toppling over and falling into pieces on the ground. It isn’t a pleasant image and it’s one that we would want to avoid.
