We are very happy to announce the publication of the Special issue on the "Cultural and Artistic Participation of Migrants: A Pathway Towards Sociopolitical Integration" published on the AmeriQuests Vol. 16(1), and edited by Robert F. Barsky (Vanderbilt) and Marco Martiniello, director of CEDEM.

The special issue features articles on the cultural and artistic participation of migrants and descendants of migrants in a transatlantic perspective, and also on the spaces and the moments when this participation intersects with, and binds to, public forms of intercultural collective engagement, whether artistic, political, or both. This issue includes a selection of papers that were presented at the conference "Immigration, Cultural Participation and New Forms of Political Solidarity: Global Perspectives", held at  l’Université de Liège (Belgium) in September of 2019.

The publication is available in open access at: http://ameriquests.org/index.php/ameriquests/issue/view/232
