Reviews

Controlling migration is not just about borders and enforcement, it is also about discourses of control and of resilience, struggle and belonging. This book offers a rich set of case studies that critically illustrate the close links between power, politics and discourse in the governance of migration. It is an essential read for researchers and scholars but also for interested citizens, the third sector and politicians. * Anna Triandafyllidou, Ryerson University, Canada *

They demonize 'the other', thereby turning the spotlight away from the systemic problems of social inequality and poverty. Based on concrete cases, this 'must read' book deconstructs the covert and overt mechanisms of migration control, exclusion and discrimination. * Piet Van Avermaet, Ghent University, Belgium *
