Borders, mobility and belonging in the era of Brexit and Trump by Mary Gilmartin

Borders, mobility and belonging in the era of Brexit and Trump by Mary Gilmartin

Providing new insights into the politics of migration and citizenship in the UK and the US, this book challenges the increasingly prevalent view of migration and migrants as threats and of formal citizenship as a necessary marker of belonging. Instead the authors offer an analysis of migration and citizenship in practice, as a counterpoint to simplistic discourses. The book uses cutting-edge academic work on migration and citizenship to address three themes central to current debates - borders and walls, mobility and travel, and belonging.

"An important contribution to the debates around borders, migration and citizenshipIt will be widely embraced by a variety of audiences, including students, academics, migration advocates, those in the policy community and interested general readers." John Shields, Ryerson University, Canada
