Abstract

This volume examines the relationship between hope, mobility, and
immobility in African migration. Through case studies set within and
beyond the continent, it demonstrates that hope offers a unique
prism for analyzing the social imaginaries and aspirations which
underpin migration in situations of uncertainty, deepening
inequality, and delimited access to global circuits of legal mobility.
