Moving between the hip-hop of M.I.A. and Human Rights reports, satellite maps and survivor testimonies, it shows how this war in a small country is also enmeshed with critical global issues such as the effects of the war on terror, the formations of diasporic identities and the hardening politics of borders. 410 0$aMobility & Politics,$x2731-3875 606 $aLiterature$xPhilosophy 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aCommunication 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPoetry 606 $aLiterary Theory 606 $aCultural Theory 606 $aMedia and Communication 606 $aHuman Migration 606 $aPolitical Science 606 $aPoetry and Poetics 615 0$aLiterature$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPoetry. 615 14$aLiterary Theory. 615 24$aCultural Theory. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 615 24$aHuman Migration. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aPoetry and Poetics. 676 $a302.23 700 $aPerera$b S$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058285 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255233103321 996 $aSurvival Media$92498746 997 $aUNINA
