Summary:

New analytical frameworks help us to shed light on global transformations regarding community responses and complex ways to think about gendered solidarities. Bringing together different ethnographic fieldworks, Ribas-Mateos provides lucid accounts of fundamental themes of the current times. This book involves a serious effort of visibilization of the hidden sexual violence in Mediterranean borders-particularly in Tangier and Oujda. Moreover, it brings such message of visibilization to diasporic cites-London and Paris-through the organization of video-debates and crowdfunding projects.

This "Moving Cartography" consolidates the disparate strands of thought of mobilities in specific global sites, in order to provide a fundamental book for anybody who wishes to gain a deeper understanding of today's social solidarities regarding women's resistance, African migration, and BLM activism.
