Isi artikel

Through its focus on children and return migration, this article addresses two invisibilities within migration research. It presents the experiences of children as equal movers in returning households, drawing on research with them in their domestic spaces. Exploring how children negotiate coming ‘home’ and highlighting their experiences from their own perspective promotes an understanding of the everyday practices that underpin return migration. It reveals differences between children and their parents to highlight what can be lost in accounts of migration through the exclusion of children’s experiences. In particular, it shows how children engage in more mobile, transient and smaller-scale homemaking practices.
