| Synopsis: | In "Migrancy, Culture, Identity", Iain Chambers unravels how our sense of place and identity is realised as we move through languages, worlds and histories. The author explores the impact of cultural diversity on today's world, from the 'realistic' eye of social commentary to the 'scientific' approach of the cultural anthropologist or the critical distance of the historian; from the computer screen to the walkman and 'World Music'. The text examines today's disturbance and dislocation of history, culture and identity and explores how migration, marginality and homelessness have disrupted the West's faith in linear progress and rational thinking.
