Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First US edition, first printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 33.5 × 25.5cm, 432pp + 32 pp booklet in pocket to rear. In photographs taken over seven years and across more than thirty-five countries, Migrations documents the epic displacement of the world's people at the close of the twentieth century. Wars, natural disasters, environmental degradation, explosive population growth, and the widening gap between rich and poor have resulted in over 100 million international migrants, a number that has doubled in the span of a decade. This extraordinary level of demographic change is unparalleled in human history, and presents profound challenges to the most basic notions of nation, culture, community, and citizenship. The first pictorial survey to extensively chronicle the current global flux of humanity, Migrations follows Latin Americans entering the United States, Jews leaving the former Soviet Union, Africans traveling into Europe, Kosovars fleeing into Albania, and many others. The images address suffering while revealing the profound dignity, courage, and energy of the subjects. With his unique vision and empathy, Salgado gives us a clearer picture of the enormous social and political transformations now occurring in a world divided between excess and need. Condition: This copy is in very good condition, with a little wrinkling to the wrapper along the top edge.**PLEASE NOTE: As this is a heavy book, postage may have to be increased for overseas (non-UK) buyers, or decreased where appropriate.

Internationally renowned photographer Sebastiao Salgado, whose previous book "Workers" changed forever the image of manual labour around the world, has now turned his attention to the staggering phenomenon of mass migration. In photographs taken over seven years and across more than thirty-five countries, "MIGRATIONS" documents the epic displacement of the world's people at the close of the twentieth century. "MIGRATIONS" documents the world-altering phenomenon of mass migration. Salgado's images collectively serve as a metaphor for the hundreds of million people who, in an elemental struggle for survival, have ruptured their ties with land and tradition in a flight toward other destinies. With his unique vision and empathy, Salgado gives us a clearer picture of the enormous social and political transformations now occurring in a world divided between excess and need. There are an estimated 100 million migrants in the world today. This extraordinary level of demographic change is unparalleled in human history and presents profound challenges to the most basic notions of nation, culture, community, and citizenship. "MIGRATIONS" follows Latin Americans entering the United States, Jews leaving the former Soviet Union, Africans travelling into Europe, Kosovars fleeing into Albania, and many other displaced and migrant populations. A totally mind-blowing book, that captures unique and harrowing moments in life.
