General Editor: Roger Zetter, Refugee Studies Centre, University of Oxford This series, published in association with the Refugee Studies Centre, University of Oxford, reflects the multidisciplinary nature of the field and includes within its scope international law, anthropology, medicine, geography, geopolitics, social psychology and economics. `This volume is a precious addition to Somali and Diasporic Studies. It is at once theoretically agile, descriptively rich, and delivered with humane sensibilities.' ---Ahmed Samatar, Macalester College `"Migrant workers" money transfers home are usually the stuff of World Bank statistics. Anna Lindley tells the human stories behind the data, and examines the relationships between people trying to survive the daily insecurity of a failed state and those who have escaped. Yet she never forgets the political economy of global inequality, which lies behind the heart-wrenching decisions that refugees and migrants have to make. This book is a remarkable combination of social analysis and story-telling, which should be read by everyone who ever fell for the headlines about asylum seekers as a threat.'---Stephen Castles, University of Sydney `Anna Lindley's new book is a welcome addition to the study of transnational remittances and their critical role in the lives of ordinary residents of war-torn Somalia. [The author] has done a great service to scholars of the Horn of Africa, reminding readers that the protracted crisis in Somalia and its global remittance industry defy simplistic, "knee jerk" explanations.' ---Peter D. Little, Emory University and author of Somalia: Economy without State `This is an interesting, humane, thoughtful and well-written account of Somali remittances, a topic that has been discussed to some extent but never in such a detailed way. It addresses current debates and policy interests in the field of migration-development very well. Lindley's data on remittances in conflict-affected areas is remarkably detailed and rich, while her multi-sited fieldwork approach provides an excellent insight into the complexities of engaging in transnational livelihoods for all those involved.'---Cindy Horst, Senior Researcher, International Peace Research Institute in Oslo
