It offers an overview of the research landscape and introduces an agency-centered theoretical model that provides a conceptual framework for translocality. The authors Malte Steinbrink and Hannah Niedenführ plead for a translocal approach to social transformation, showing how the translocality of livelihoods is shaping the lives of half a billion people on the continent and impacting local conditions. Using an action-oriented approach, the book analyzes the effects of translocal livelihoods on diverse aspects of economic, environmental and social change in rural Sub-Saharan Africa. The study thus makes an innovative contribution not only to migration research and development studies but also to the discussion around the policy and practice of development cooperation and planning. It is time to rethink development in light of translocal realities. The book appeals to scholars and researchers in geography, sociology, policy-making and planning, development studies, migration research and rural development. 410 0$aSpringer Geography,$x2194-3168 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aCultural geography 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aGeography 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aAfrica$xEconomic conditions 606 $aSocial and Cultural Geography 606 $aHuman Migration 606 $aRegional Geography 606 $aDevelopment Studies 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aAfrican Economics 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aCultural geography. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aGeography. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aAfrica$xEconomic conditions. 615 14$aSocial and Cultural Geography. 615 24$aHuman Migration. 615 24$aRegional Geography. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 615 24$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aAfrican Economics. 676 $a325.67 700 $aSteinbrink$b Malte$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0931635 702 $aNiedenführ$b Hannah$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366653703321 996 $aAfrica on the Move$92124881 997 $aUNINA
