*Aims & Scope*

Transient migration due to the global movements of people for work, study
and lifestyle is part of everyday life. Transitions: Journal of Transient
Migration is devoted to providing a platform that explores and investigates
the complexities of transient migration. It aims to map the experiences of
transient migrants as they engage and interact with communities that are
linked both to their home and host nations and to analyse the effects of
transient migration as a global, national and communal phenomenon. The
journal’s  focus is on how transient migrants cope with transience and how
transient migration affects individuals, communities and nations before,
during and after the period of transience.

By placing emphasis on transience, Transitions provides an avenue for the
interpretation of temporality and unsettledness, which it considers
significant and affective. Societies, communities, individuals and cultures
are, thus, in a constant yet fluctuating state of transition.
