Migration Mobilities Bristol (MMB) created this site as a Specialist Research Institute at the University of Bristol (2018-25) to profile the wide and active group of scholars researching migration and mobility related issues in Latin America. This site is now archived but MMB continues to be supportive of this area of research and facilitating collaboration in the region.
We have an archive of more than 40 blog posts from staff and collaborations working across many different disciplines with key areas of interest in Latin America including:
- political violence and post-conflict reconstruction in communities experiencing local, national and cross-border displacement;
- labour and mobility, and the historical legacy of slavery in contemporary work relations;
- representations of territorial boundaries and the tensions between political and ecological rights;
- neoliberal market expansion, wildcat economics and the movement of people and capital to and from the global margins;
- the circulation of ideas and translational exchanges across borders within Latin America and beyond.
