Omschrijving
Anti-immigrant sentiments are high across the globe. Citizens are concerned about the failure of politicians to show effective leadership on migration. An ill-informed understanding of migration -and the resulting xenophobia and racism against refugees and immigrants- has people turning to populist politicians who wish to bring back protectionism, reverse globalization, and erect walls and fences. This book dispels some of the misperceptions that migrants are the source of societal ills and provides non-specialists with a basic understanding of the phenomenon of international migration to be able to engage in constructive debates on refugees and migrants.
This engagingly written and expansive book centers on the questions of why migration matters and why an understanding of human population movementsis important to an understanding of the world in which we live. Dianna Shandy, Professor of Anthropology and Associate Provost, Macalester College, United States.Key questions on migration - such as why are we challenged by the arrival of migrants in our country? Aren't there terrorists among migrants? Will migrants steal our jobs? - are answered in simple and accessible prose. Dr Benjamin Nickl, The University of Sydney, Australia. The book judiciously covers key debates that shaped contemporary scholarship on international migration including the multi-faceted contribution of immigrants, ill effects of the early European settlers on indigenous people, different types of migration, and myriad migrant identities in Australia, Canada, and the United States. NergisCanefe, Associate Professor, York University, Toronto, Canada.
