The Nile on eBay   Handbook on Critical Geographies of Migration by Katharyne Mitchell, Reece Jones, Jennifer L. Fluri

Border walls, shipwrecks in the Mediterranean, separated families at the border, island detention camps: migration is at the centre of contemporary political and academic debates. This ground-breaking Handbook offers an exciting and original analysis of critical research on themes such as these, drawing on cutting-edge theories from an interdisciplinary and international group of leading scholars. With a focus on spatial analysis and geographical context, this volume highlights a range of theoretical, methodological and regional approaches to migration research, while remaining attuned to the underlying politics that bring critical scholars together.   Divided into six thematic sections, including new areas in critical migration research, the book covers the key questions galvanizing migration scholars today, such as issues surrounding refugees and border militarization. Each chapter explores new themes, expanding on core theories to convey fresh insight to contemporary research.   A key resource for migration, refugee and border studies this Handbook provides an in-depth analysis of the topic, covering a vast array of research ideas with a specific focus on the geographical aspects of migration. Scholars working on migration, refugees, asylum, transnationalism, humanitarianism and borders will find this an invaluable read. Contributors: J. Allsopp, I. Ataç, N. Bagheri, A. Blunt, J.

Review

'This Handbook arrives at a significant time, when state and public responses to human mobility have taken a particularly hostile turn. A rich compendium, it examines numerous key spaces, scales, structures and dynamics of migration that characterize our turbulent era.'--Steven Vertovec, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity, Germany'By highlighting the intersection of two major themes - qualitative historical change within continuity and the significance of spatial analysis in the mapping of economic and political restructuring - this book advances migration studies and speaks to our precarious challenging times.'--Nina Glick Schiller, Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, Germany'This comprehensively framed and engaging collection of essays by leading international geographers provides an innovative global perspective and critical analytic insights for both scholars and advocates into the multiple cultural, social, and political dimensions of international migration - a major contribution to contemporary theoretical and public policy debates.'--Josh DeWind, Social Science Research Council, US
