Migration and Border-Making cover

This book deals with the ongoing processes of migration and boundary-(re)making in Europe and other parts of the world. It takes stock of recent and hitherto unpublished research on the refugee crisis in Europe, migration dynamics in the Middle East and migration flows in Africa and Latin America, specifically in relation to their political, social and cultural framing. In particular, chapters in this collection focus on newer cases of transnational migration and their socio-political implications. Alongside the refugee and migrant crisis in Europe,new patterns of migration and re-bordering can also be seen across Europe, the Middle East and beyond. These include both the rise of anti-immigration populism within the nation-states and practices of discouraging migration at the regional level such as the EU.

This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the changing politics, scale and diversity of migration and border-making in the twenty-first century. Illustrated by a range of historical and contemporary cases of migration in Western and Eastern Europe, Latin America and the Middle East, the diverse contributions from nationalism and migration scholars use qualitative case analysis, interviews and archival research to deconstruct the micro-foundations of migration politics in local context. -- Erin K.
