      abstract = {This book examines how Lampedusa, Italys southernmost  island, has become a transnational symbol representing  migration to Europe from the Global South. It analyses how  three very different associations have used the name  Lampedusa as a means of restoring a sense of subjectivity  or agency to migrants themselves. Jacopo Colombini argues  that the work of the Archivio delle Memorie Migranti  (Rome), the self-organised refugee group Lampedusa in  Hamburg, and the Lampedusa-based Collettivo Askavusa offers  an alternative to the stereotypical, often racially  connoted, public discussion of migrant presence in Italy  and Europe. He also demonstrates, however, that the  marginalisation of migrant and refugee voices in the public  discourse is also partially and unavoidably reproduced in  the cultural projects that wish to restore their agency.  Jacopo Colombini holds a PhD in Italian Cultural Studies  from the University of St. Andrews, Scotland.},
