In migrants and city-making ayşe ağlar and nina glick schiller trace the participation of migrants in the unequal networks of power that connect their lives to regional, national, and global institutions. Grounding their work in comparative ethnographies of three cities struggling to regain their former standing--mardin, turkey; manchester, new hampshire; and halle/saale, germany-- ağlar and glick schiller challenge common assumptions that migrants exist on society's periphery, threaten social cohesion, and require integration. Instead ağlar and glick schiller explore their multifaceted role as city-makers, including their relationships to municipal officials, urban developers, political leaders, business owners, community organizers, and social justice movements. In each city ağlar and glick schiller met with migrants from around the world; attended cultural events, meetings, and religious services; and patronized migrant-owned businesses, allowing them to gain insights into the ways in which migrants build social relationships with non-migrants and participate in urban restoration and development.
