Transnational Death brings together eleven cutting-edge articles from
the emerging field of transnational death studies. The collection
highlights European, Asian, North American, and Middle Eastern
perspectives, and reflects on people's changing experiences with death
in the context of migration over time. The collection begins with a
thematic assessment of transnational death studies, and then examines
case studies, divided into Family, Community, and Commemoration
sections. Together, the chapters provide new insights on issues
including identity and belonging, community reciprocity, transnational
communication, and spaces of mourning and commemoration. The collection
is edited by Dr. Samira Saramo (University of Turku), Dr. Eerika
Koskinen-Koivisto (University of Jyväskylä), and Professor of Ethnology
Hanna Snellman (University of Helsinki).
