The planetary and the microscopic are not necessarily in opposition—life is but a flow of minerals. At the micro scale, the biological and the geological become one, with metabolism interlinking human and non-human entities. Disease, from the plague to H1N1, travel mysteriously and are therefore terrifying—fear moving faster than bacteria. Seeds, plants, fauna have travelled the world, and back again, echoing humanity’s stories of exploration, exploitation and colonisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn ‘MICRO ODYSSEYS’, the fifth and penultimate issue of Migrant Journal, we explore the microscopic in movement: from shooting stars to shifting sands, bacteria in Estonia and particles in Geneva, mosquitoes in fascist Italy and tuberculosis in Indian cities, micro-plastics floating in the Pacific Ocean, Roman weeds and their mysterious migration to Copenhagen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eBethany Rigby\u003cbr\u003e→ WATCH THIS SPACE\u003cbr\u003eMarit Mihklepp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e→ HOLOBIONT TALES\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eJustinien Tribillon, Isabel Seiffert and Christoph Miler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e→ SUBATOMIC DIPLOMACY\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eÉlisée Reclus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e→ THE WHITE MAN'S CLOVER AND THE MAORI'S FERN\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eD.
