"The world of second generation Australians, steeped within a web of transnational connections and relationships, encompasses a complex array of negotiated identities, responsibilities and belongings. The essays included in Helen Lee's collection draw on rich and multifaceted aspects of Australian second generation experiences that cover a range of pertinent topics: from the significance and diverse conceptualizations of homelands to questions of politics, remittances and music. They add important new dimensions to the growing body of Australian scholarship on second generation transnationalism. This collection, which combines conceptual clarity with the richness of data, will fill an important gap in the literature on migration and transnationalism and provide an invaluable insight into the dynamics of contemporary social life in Australia."—Zlatko Skrbiš, Professor of Sociology, School of Social Science, Co-director of Research, SBS Faculty, The University of Queensland"This is the first volume to focus on the intersections of second generation and transnationalism studies in the Australian context. It provides a timely contribution to an emerging field of study that has to date included few accounts of Australian experiences. Helen Lee has woven together a stimulating collection of papers from complementary disciplines providing richly detailed primarily ethnographic accounts that showcase important new scholarship in the field. United by a common focus on identity, the collection offers a nuanced account of the varieties of practices and processes that characterise the transnational realities of the second generation including through music, film, religion, ritual, narrative and imagination."—Dr Loretta Baldassar, Associate Professor, Anthropology and Sociology M255, University of Western Australia
