ABSTRACT This study, based on primary data, highlights various facets of overseas remittances received by rural farm households of Punjab. Importantly, higher proportion of sampled farm households had received overseas remittances on regular basis. Per-household and per capita amount of remittances realized was substantial. All size class of land holders had received remittances with no unique relationship to size of holding. The remittances, in overall, had contributed substantially to income of households. The pattern of utilization of remittances showed their diverse uses. The level of remittances depends upon 'years of stay of first emigrant in destination country', 'education of first emigrant from family', and 'number of persons abroad from family'. However, remittances had practically bypassed agriculture sector as large number of sampled households has completely leased out their agricultural land and very small proportion of received remittances was used for purchase of agricultural land and machinery.

the in-between but this is then only explored explicitly by a few of the contributors (notably in Chapter 3, Chapter 4 and Chapter 8). Once again, it would have been good to have seen more direct engagement with the idea of the ‘in-between’, possibly linking this to the related and now widely used concept of liminality. Considering the contributions in the book as a whole it is clear that there is great breadth both in terms of countries covered and in terms of the types of middle-class migrants profiled. Certainly, the notion of ‘a middle-class’ is problematic, and the book goes a long way in recognising this: emphasising a need for nuance and plurality when discussing the spectrum of middling migrants. In this sense, it takes us well beyond the early literature (from the mid2000s) on middle-class migration. Related to this, whilst the book is squarely focused on class, other facets of identity are brought to the fore such as race, gender and age. This diversity and nuance is a real strength and underlines the importance of edited collections like this in building up sophisticated and multi-dimensional empirical and conceptual insight. Ultimately, one is left in no doubt of the need for a class-based lens when considering middling migrants’ experiences and trajectories, but one is also left in no doubt that a class-based lens on its own is insufficient. Throughout, the book draws upon very rich empirical material, with all contributors opting for in-depth qualitative methods and often drawing on impressive sample sizes. Going forward, there is certainly room for complementary quantitative research into middle-class migration, more policy engagement, and further development of the notions of ‘privilege’ and ‘in-between’ status (ideally with reference to related established concepts in the extant literature). The potential for future middling migration research, and the platform established by this edited collection, is something that could have been reflected upon in a concluding section and the book does end a little abruptly. Overall, and despite minor gripes, Rethinking Privilege and Social Mobility in Middle-Class Migration will undoubtedly anchor and inspire future studies of middle-class mobility which, given the predicted growth of the middle-classes, is likely to become an ever more important strand of international migration research. The collection (all 11 chapters are of high quality) is one that I would certainly recommend to readers of the South Asian Diaspora and to students and researchers from across the social sciences more generally.

ABSTRACT Jude Ratnam’s 2017 Demons in Paradise explores the aftermath of the civil war by embarking on a personal and intimate odyssey during which different past traumas are revisited. The present collaborative article is the result of the authors’ presentation of the film itself in presence of Jude Ratnam during a series of talks in cinemas in France in 2018 and 2019 during which numerous exchanges and discussions took place. The paper will first focus on the demons of the colonial legacy left by the British and how the divides broadened by the former imperial power exacerbated ethnic and religious tensions between Tamils and Sinhalese. In the second part, this paper will explore how Jude Ratnam explores and dramatises past traumas, to propose a form of ethics of the gaze questioning the political aporias of the post-war peacebuilding process and the hegemonic narrative of resistance imposed by the LTTE.
