This book explores the transformation of the Tunisian space of mobility after the Arab Uprisings, looking at the country's emerging profile as a migratory destination and focusing on refugees from Syria, Libya, and Sub-Saharan countries; Tunisian migrants in Europe who return home; and young undocumented European migrants living in Tunis. This work engages with and contributes to the broader conversation on the migrations-crisis nexus, by retracing the geographies of mobility which are reshaping the Mediterranean region.

Enriches understanding of how the geographies of mobility are reshaping the Mediterranean Offers a detailed case study of the changing patterns of migration across the Mediterranean Engages a variety of disciplines such as migration studies, postcolonial studies, political theory and human geography
