Abstract

Migration is one of the key issues in Ireland today. This book provides a new and original approach to understanding contemporary Irish migration and immigration, showing that they are processes that need to be understood together rather than separately. It uses a wide range of data - from statistical reports to in-depth qualitative studies - to show these connections. The book focuses on four key themes - work, social connections, culture and belonging - that are common to the experiences of immigrants, emigrants and internal migrants. It includes a wide selection of case studies, such as the global GAA, the campaign for emigrant voting, and the effects of migration on families. Clearly written and accessible, this book is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of Irish migration. It also has broader relevance, as it suggests a new approach to the study of migration nationally and internationally.

Abstract

Key Concepts in Political Geography is a new kind of textbook that forms part of an innovative set of companion texts for the Human Geography sub disciplines. Organized around 20 short essays, Key Concepts in Political Geography provides a cutting edge introduction to the central concepts that define contemporary research in political geography. Involving detailed and expansive discussions, the book includes: a) an introductory chapter providing a succinct overview of the recent developments in the field; b) over 20 key concept entries with comprehensive explanations, definitions and evolutions of the subject; c) extensive pedagogic features that enhance understanding including a glossary, figures, diagrams and further reading. Key Concepts in Political Geography is an ideal companion text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in political geography and covers the expected staples of the sub-discipline, such as nationalism, territoriality, scale, and political-economy, as well as relatively new arrivals to the field, including the other, anti-statism, gender, and post-conflict. Written by an internationally recognized set of authors, Key Concepts in Political Geography is an essential addition to any geography student's library. -- Back cover.
