Susan Bibler Coutin and Barbara Yngvesson speak to the current historical moment in which the dichotomy between an 'above ground' inhabited by dominant groups and an 'underground' to which unauthorised immigrants, political exiles, and transnational adoptees are relegated cannot be sustained. This dichotomy was made possible by the illusion that some people do not belong, that some forms of kin are not real, or that certain ways of knowing do not count. To examine accounts that challenge such illusions, the authors focus on the spaces between groups, where difference is constituted and where the potential for new forms of relationship may be realised. 588 Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on August 24, 2023). 650 0 Belonging (Social psychology) 650 0 Identity (Psychology) |xSocial aspects. 650 0 Marginality, Social. 650 0 Social integration. 650 0 Mind and reality |xSocial aspects. 650 0 Ethnology. 650 7 Society. |2ukslc 650 7 Migration, immigration & emigration. |2thema 650 7 Sociology & anthropology. |2thema 650 7 Anthropology. |2thema 650 7 Social & cultural anthropology. |2thema 776 |z9781501768828 700 1 Yngvesson, Barbara, |d1941- |eauthor. 830 0 Cornell scholarship online. 906 BOOK
