Caribbean Journeys is an insightful ethnographic study that delves into the intertwined narratives of migration and the concept of home across three West Indian family networks. Karen Fog Olwig reorients traditional migration research by centering her analysis on these dynamic familial ties rather than on static notions of sending and receiving societies. Tracing migratory journeys that commenced over sixty years ago, the book follows individuals who left a British colonial town in Jamaica, a French Creole rural community in Dominica, and an African-Caribbean village of small farmers on Nevis. Through detailed interviews with successive generations now residing in regions as diverse as California, Barbados, Nova Scotia, Florida, New Jersey, and England, Olwig uncovers the multifaceted educational, occupational, and socioeconomic trajectories that shape these dispersed communities. Her work challenges the simplistic label of "Caribbean diaspora" by illuminating how family stories and intimate networks are at the heart of identity and belonging.
