This question is examined in the light of the ongoing global crises of mobility and severe border practices. In recounting their stories migrant and refugee women appear in the world as ‘who they are’ — unique and unrepeatable human beings —and not as ‘what they are’ —objectified ‘refugees’, ‘victims’ or ‘stateless subjects’. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWomen’s stories leave traces of their will to rewrite their exclusion from oppressive regimes, defend their choice of civil and patriarchal disobedience, grasp their passage, claim their right to have rights and affirm their determination for new beginnings. What emerges from the encounter between theoretical abstractions and women’s lived experiences is the need to decolonize feminist theories and make cartographies of mobility assemblages, wherein nomadism is a component of entangled relations and not a category or a figuration of a subject position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese stories that have now been collected, transcribed and analysed; they have created a rich archive of uprooted women’s experiences and have brought forward a wide range of new ideas that will be presented and discussed in the book:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecolonizing feminist theory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMobility assemblages and geographies of nomadism \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe art of listening to fragmented narratives and the labour of translation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrossing borders and inhabiting borderlands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadical solitude and radical hope\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeminist genealogies of labour under conditions of forced displacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe force of political narratives through the figure of Antigone?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEducation for hope \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImagining the non-nomad \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4 narrated stories will also be presented in full interwoven in the theoretical discussions of the book, thus opening up a dialogic space between theoretical reflections and diffractions, and narratives of lived experiences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: The making of a book in dialogue with the real\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Mobility assemblages and geographies of nomadism\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Who are you?
