ABSTRACT
The appropriation of the new media by migrants has changed the way in which today people migrate, move, negotiate their personal and national identity and make strategies to deal with new cultures. Central among the main causes of the diffusion, adoption and domestication of ICTs by migrants are the globalization and the development of the broadband society. Their mutual ontology is proving to become one of the leading forces for political, cultural and economic transformation in the contemporary world, and in this chapter the topics that expand upon and explore this debate are set out in a series of themed discussions concluding with an overview of the contents of the five sections of the book.
