Il libro

The edited volume critically explores the relationship between solidarity and unauthorized migration, drawing from the SOLROUTES ERC advanced research project. This interdisci-plinary work examines the structural forces driving migration and the material realities of solidarity, emphasizing the nodes connecting these phenomena. It introduces innovative methodologies, such as the Generative Narrative Workshops (GNW), to offer a dynamic framework for studying migration and solidarity. With case studies from Europe and North Africa, from the Türkiye-Iran border to the Western Sahara, it highlights the interplay between migration flows, grassroots solidarity, and the challenges faced by migrants and activists. The volume provides valuable insights into the changing landscape of migration and the role of solidarity in resisting exclusionary regimes, making it a significant addition contribution to critical migration studies.
