Abstract: The relevance of migration for media literacy and intercultural dialogue (MILID) is often discussed with reference to particular countries of 'origin' and 'residence.' This article, however, considers how contemporary experiences of media and migration inform understanding of, and communication within, a globalized 'network society' (Castells, 2010). Drawing on qualitative interviews with Singaporean university students in Melbourne, Australia, we argue that social relations are organised as 'global fields' that are locally and unequally differentiated (Glick Schiller)
