title: The challenge facing migration research: a case for greater awareness.
abstract: The author critically examines an article by Keith Halfacree and Paul Boyle, in which the authors made a case for a biographical approach to migration research. "My point of contention--incredulous disbelief might be more accurate--stems from their conclusion that the biographical approach should be the ¿new' methodological base for an improved paradigm in migration studies."
