Other forms of human movement are created by the reality or lure of economic opportunity (this is true of much Asian migration to the oil-rich parts of the Middle East). Yet other forms of movement are created by permanently mobile groups of specialized workers (United Nations soldiers, oil technologists, development specialists, agricultural laborers, etc.) Still other forms of movement, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, involve major droughts and famines, often tied to disastrous alliances between corrupt states and opportunistic international and global agencies. In yet other communities, the logic of movement is provided by the leisure industries, which create tourist sites and locations around the world. The ethnography of these tourist locations is just beginning to be written in detail, but what little we do know suggests that many such locations create complex conditions for the production and reproduction of locality, in which ties of marriage, work, business, and leisure weave together various circulating populations with various kinds of “locals” to create localities that belong in one sense to particular nation-states but are, from another point of view, what we might call translocalities.
