| Abstract: | The impacts of migration on the restructuring of locality remains neglected by
both migration scholars and urban geographers, although the importance of
global forces in structuring the flows of people, identities, subjectivities, and
cultural production and consequent alterations in a time/space continuum is
widely acknowledged. Yet migrants both experience and contribute to the
forces of integration and fragmentation, as they participate in the rescaling of
urban economies, politics and governance and the reshaping of geographies
of representation. Consequently any analysis of the restructuring of urban
social fabrics will be incomplete without considering the impact of migration
and migrants. |
