QUEST n. 27 – (E)motional Maps: Affective Geographies among Jewish Migrants from North Africa and the Middle East 

issue 27 / n. 1 (2025)

a cura di Aviad Moreno, Piera Rossetto e Emir Galilee

Dall’introduzione:

«La migrazione raramente è solo lo spostamento di una popolazione nello spazio; quasi sempre, specialmente quando avviene su larga scala, è un cambiamento radicale, una ricalibrazione e una profonda ridefinizione di sé stessi e del gruppo migrante in relazione allo spazio. In quanto tale, è profondamente emotiva e le cartografie che genera sono codificate con affetto».
