Description

Product Description This volume demonstrates that migration- and diversity-related concepts are always contested, and provides a reflexive critical awareness and better comprehension of the complex questions driving migration studies. The main purpose of this volume is to enhance conceptual thinking on migration studies. Examining interaction between concepts in the public domain, the academic disciplines, and the policy field, this book helps to avoid simplification or even trivialization of complex issues. Recent political events question established ways of looking at issues of migration and diversity and require a clarification or reinvention of political concepts to match the changing world. Applying five basic dimensions, each expert chapter contribution reflects on the role concepts play and demonstrates that concepts are ideology dependent, policy/politics dependent, context dependent, discipline dependent, and language dependent, and are influenced by how research is done, how policies are formulated, and how political debates extend and distort them. This book will be essential reading for students, scholars, and practitioners in migration studies/politics, migrant integration, citizenship studies, racism studies, and more broadly of key interest to sociology, political science, and political theory. Review ‘Written by leading scholars and researchers the various chapters in this bold and challenging book are full of insights into key issues that are at the heart of ongoing conversations in many societies. It is a must-read for all those working on this important social and political issue.’ John Solomos, University of Warwick, UK ‘From citizenship and diversity to identity and multiculturalism, the essays in this innovative and important volume by leading migration scholars provide fresh perspectives and revealing insights into contested concepts in migration studies.’ Nancy Foner, City University of New York, USA ‘Migration is a hotly debated, contested topic in many countries. These disagreements are mirrored in the many contested concepts in migration studies. This book, however, shows that clarification of these contested concepts may be a first step in making migration less contested.’ Jan Willem Duyvendak, University of Amsterdam and NIAS-KNAW, The Netherlands About the Author Ricard Zapata-Barrero is Full Professor in the Department of Political and Social Sciences at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
