    • The edited volume seeks to explore the lived experiences of belonging, uprootedness, boundaries, and borders through autoethnographic storytelling. We invite contributions that reflect on how individuals wrestle with identity, justification for occupying space, and the fluidity of place within political, cultural, and environmental climates. To feel (up)rooted manifests as physical (such as immigration, relocation, or occupation of certain spaces), financial (such as job loss, insecurity, or economic stress), and/or psychological (such as trauma, discrimination, social injustices, and upheaval of social norms).
      In particular, we are interested in how built, natural, and cultural environments shape our sense of self and community. This volume will serve as a reflection on this critical moment, inviting scholars to examine how uprootedness, migration, institutional belonging, and the forces of exclusion and inclusion define our realities. This volume asks: How do we define belonging when everything feels at stake? How do place, space, and identity intersect in ways that root us—or uproot us—within institutions, communities, families, and geographies?
