Written as a companion to “World on the Move: 250,000 Years of Human Migration,” a traveling exhibition developed by the American Anthropological Association and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage, this thought-provoking book helps us reframe the ways we think and talk about migration. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWorld on the Move\u003c\/i\u003e opens by describing the basic patterns and processes of migration and discussing the evidence used to measure migration, displacement, and their impacts. Subsequent chapters trace major population movements through human history, review the different reasons that propel the movement of human populations, and illustrate the many ways that migration affects us all. The final section focuses on international and national policies on immigration and displacement, including perspectives on birthright citizenship, migrant mothers and their children, and migration driven by climate change. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on a wealth of case studies of diverse cultures from across human history, \u003ci\u003eWorld on the Move\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmploys the “Crossroads” concept, an innovative narrative device that reveals connections between peoples, cultures, and moments when crucial decisions are made\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses ways research on migration and displacement have been used to support public policy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighlights the roles of ever-evolving genetic, archaeological, and linguistic evidence in reshaping understanding of human population movements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplains basic terms, patterns, and processes of migration and displacement, as well as various evaluation and interpretation methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses timely and complex issues such as enslavement and trafficking, border walls, immigration policy, and climate change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003ePresenting the latest scholarship on the peopling of the continents, \u003ci\u003eWorld on the Move: 250,000 Years of Human Migration\u003c\/i\u003e is an excellent textbook for undergraduate courses in anthropology, sociology, political science, cultural geography, and immigration studies, particularly those exploring migration, displacement, diaspora, and immigration policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdward Liebow\u003c\/b\u003e is Affiliate Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Washington and Research Associate at the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.
