Synopses & Reviews
Based on national surveys by SAMP in South Africa, Lesotho, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Namibia, this book represents the most comprehensive research on cross-border migration ever undertaken in the region. From gender relations to xenophobia and nationalism, the book provides invaluable insights into people's experiences with, and attitudes towards, cross-border migration and challenges many of the widely-held stereotypes about migrants.
