We argue that combining the mobilities paradigm with the concept of translocality offers a fruitful avenue of investigation not only of the production of translocal spaces, but also of their temporality and mutability. Through a multi-sited research approach we shed light on the genesis as well as the decay of translocal connections. This paper shows that translocal structures are important moorings of migration, and raises the question of what happens to translocal spaces when migration flows dissolve.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_3&#8243;][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Video Embed Code&#8221;]&lt;iframe src=&#8221;https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/272544762&#8243; width=&#8221;640&#8243; height=&#8221;360&#8243; frameborder=&#8221;0&#8243; webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;\/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com\/272544762&#8243;&gt;Video Abstract &#8211; Between the village and the global city&lt;\/a&gt; from &lt;a href=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com\/taylorandfrancis&#8221;&gt;Taylor &amp;amp; Francis&lt;\/a&gt; on &lt;a href=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com&#8221;&gt;Vimeo&lt;\/a&gt;.&lt;\/p&gt;[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;T&amp;F Link&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/full\/10.1080\/17450101.2018.1449785\">Read the full article on T and F Online&gt;&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Image Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jhecking\/5647853157\/in\/photolist-9B5HYz-kJ1Zea-vMfBno-d2f2sJ-ayRYb4-XKjGU3-VP9T9p-WMxYZu-e91C7e-Mufjmy-Rbe4D-aE79Je-fvYCps-dd4Any-5C6ws3-NJqceB-oU8UMk-jZwXBE-8VZtjK-cSDhtE-EZo8HQ-9ntKxE-eYSA49-8CJpBm-abmodg-eVpnDo-8EKtns-cspNMs-8JP5Hp-6fBzv2-BssK7X-djgUZ7-bAJEi2-FmmuG3-8qPR93-o6KBku-WLQwUM-VWGgdv-y5BSBw-EZyRpp-WXVt5e-VxubaP-kJ13C5-WXVTx2-d4EaNW-WYU7qQ-b82PKV-AzE38o-juomKK-F8kUX1\">Jan, Flickr<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;More Mobilities Journal Posts:&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>More Mobilities Journal Posts:<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_post_slider admin_label=&#8221;Post Slider&#8221; posts_number=&#8221;5&#8243; include_categories=&#8221;174,16&#8243; orderby=&#8221;rand&#8221; show_arrows=&#8221;on&#8221; show_pagination=&#8221;on&#8221; show_more_button=&#8221;on&#8221; content_source=&#8221;off&#8221; use_manual_excerpt=&#8221;off&#8221; show_meta=&#8221;off&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; show_image=&#8221;on&#8221; image_placement=&#8221;background&#8221; parallax=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method=&#8221;off&#8221; use_bg_overlay=&#8221;on&#8221; use_text_overlay=&#8221;off&#8221; remove_inner_shadow=&#8221;off&#8221; background_position=&#8221;default&#8221; background_size=&#8221;default&#8221; auto=&#8221;off&#8221; auto_ignore_hover=&#8221;off&#8221; hide_content_on_mobile=&#8221;off&#8221; hide_cta_on_mobile=&#8221;off&#8221; show_image_video_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; meta_letter_spacing=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_button=&#8221;off&#8221; button_letter_spacing=&#8221;0&#8243; button_use_icon=&#8221;default&#8221; button_icon_placement=&#8221;right&#8221; button_on_hover=&#8221;on&#8221; button_letter_spacing_hover=&#8221;0&#8243; bg_overlay_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.2)&#8221; text_overlay_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.34)&#8221; header_font=&#8221;||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;32&#8243; text_border_radius=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;max-height:485px;&#8221; more_text=&#8221;read more&#8221; auto_speed=&#8221;5000&#8243; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; meta_text_color=&#8221;#ededed&#8221; module_id=&#8221;home-post-slider&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_post_slider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kenstein\/50028889653\/\">Cover image\u00a0<\/a>by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/14027144@N00\">Runs with Scissors<\/a>.
