Amrita Datta tells touching human stories as part of an important global trend: the reconfiguring mobility amidst rapid political changes and an unprecedented pandemic. Nuanced and powerful, the book shows that migration is never about jobs or status only, it is also about everyday dignity and liveability, for instance the ability of making friends and moving around in a city safely, which are in turn conditioned by large political forces. A very timely and significant contribution to migration studies and global anthropology. -------- Biao Xiang, Director, Anthropology of Economic Experimentation, Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Halle, Germany This book tells the stories of Indian immigrants in Germany, including Blue Card holders and students categorized as highly skilled migrants, as well as others choosing shadow migration pathways in order to leave the country. It investigates their motivations for leaving India and choosing Germany as an immigration destination. Grappling with the stories of tech workers fleeing the pandemic, activists fleeing the witch hunting of the government, women escaping gender(ed) violence and queer people seeking freedom, this book uses reflexivity as an analytical tool. Investigation of their transcultural practices also reveals a general intent among Indians to create homes in Germany, despite several challenges to such efforts, including structural and everyday symbolic racism. Amrita Datta is a migration scholar currently based at the Department of Sociology, University of Siegen, Germany, as a Marie Sklowdowska-Curie Fellow. Earlier, she earned a doctoral degree in Sociology from the Centre for the Study of Social Systems, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India. . 001484054 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001484054 650_6 $$aIndiens (Habitants de l'Inde)$$0(CaQQLa)201-0025869$$zAllemagne$$0(CaQQLa)201-0392817$$xConditions sociales.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0377410 001484054 650_6 $$aImmigrants$$0(CaQQLa)201-0252140$$xIntégration$$0(CaQQLa)201-0252140$$zAllemagne.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0392817 001484054 650_0 $$aImmigrants$$zGermany$$xSocial conditions.$$0(DLC)sh2010006667 001484054 650_0 $$aEast Indians$$zGermany$$xSocial conditions.$$xRelations with East Indians$$0(DLC)sh2008001105 001484054 650_0 $$aImmigrants$$xCultural assimilation$$zGermany.$$0(DLC)sh2010006667 001484054 651_0 $$aGermany$$xRace relations. 001484054 651_6 $$aAllemagne$$xRelations raciales.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0352881 001484054 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001484054 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aDATTA, AMRITA.$$tSTORIES OF THE INDIAN IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES IN GERMANY.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2023$$z3031401468$$w(OCoLC)1390440716 001484054 852__ $$bebk 001484054 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-40147-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001484054 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1484054$$pGLOBAL_SET 001484054 980__ $$aBIB 001484054 980__ $$aEBOOK 001484054 982__ $$aEbook 001484054 983__ $$aOnline 001484054 994__ $$a92$$bISE
