This ethnography leads the reader into the lives of five Jamaican women in Montreal; their daily practices and experiences, their spaces of communion, their memories and projections for the future. Lisa Johnson sheds light on the mobile biographies and migratory agency of her interlocutors by following the intricate mental and physical trajectories of their deep-rooted yearning to return home.Kultur und soziale Praxis.WomenQuébec (Province)QuébecMontréalfastAmerica.Canada.Culture.Ethnology.Gender Studies.Gender.Jamaica.Mobility.Postcolonialism.Women305.4209714Johnson Lisa M.1276725MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996509964603316Moves, spaces, places3008770UNISA01973oam 2200541zu 450 991087281010332120241212215115.0(CKB)111055184246072(SSID)ssj0000393609(PQKBManifestationID)12080938(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000393609(PQKBWorkID)10365275(PQKB)10294428(EXLCZ)9911105518424607220160829d2000 uy engtxtccr2000 IEEE AP-S Conference on Antennas and Propagation for Wireless Communications : 6-8 November 2000, Waltham, Massachusetts[Place of publication not identified]IEEE2000Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph9780780358942 0780358945 Antennas (Electronics)AntennasCongressesRadioCongressesRadio wave propagationCongressesWireless communication systemsCongressesElectrical EngineeringHILCCElectrical & Computer EngineeringHILCCEngineering & Applied SciencesHILCCAntennas (Electronics)AntennasRadioRadio wave propagationWireless communication systemsElectrical EngineeringElectrical & Computer EngineeringEngineering & Applied Sciences621.382/4International Union of Radio ScienceIEEE Boston SectionIEEE Antennas and Propagation SocietyIEEE-APS Conference on Antennas and Propagation for Wireless CommunicationsPQKBPROCEEDING99108728101033212000 IEEE AP-S Conference on Antennas and Propagation for Wireless Communications : 6-8 November 2000, Waltham, Massachusetts2530096UNINA
