Routledge Citizenship, Migrant Activism and Politics of Movement

In an era where migration dominates public debate and political agendas in Western nations, this book provides a deep look into the shifting landscape of global mobility. As refugees and migrants are increasingly viewed through the lens of security, this work examines the governing of movement from the perspective of citizenship politics. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the text draws on sociology, anthropology, history, and politics to analyze how global mobility is managed. This volume brings together an international group of leading and emerging researchers to explore the intersection of migrant politics and citizenship studies. It investigates how restrictions on movement affect the lives and rights of individuals in a changing political world. This book is an essential resource for students, academics, and professionals interested in the complex relationship between state governance, migrant activism, and the evolving definition of citizenship in the modern age.
