Movement and Migration: A New Understanding
Even though movement is dealt with in studies on migration and nomadism, its methodological approach is seldom mentioned. The aim of this paper is to show that movement functions like a coordinating conjunction in the sense that it connects places along the migratory route. The monitoring of migrants during their travels and the construction of narratives capable of expressing the simultaneity and co-presence characteristic of travel are a way of identifying the chains of meaning created by subject-migrants.
