About this book
Reviews
“The book, published in 2012, is well-researched and competently written. It delineates a much more nuanced picture of cross-border migrations and related state policies than mainstream media and political rhetoric usually allow for. … it should appeal to the cool-minded academic wishing to grasp the mechanisms for inclusion and exclusion that inter-state borders still represent and implement, especially in the so-called developed countries of our planet.” (Giorgio Baruchello, The European Legacy, Vol. 22 (3), 2017)
'A fresh and innovative comparative perspective with historical depth, this accessible book builds upon the-state-of-the-art to ask key questions about state borders in the OECD world today: who is excluded by these 'semi-permeable filters,' why, how and by whom?' - Virginie Guiraudon, Research Professor, Sciences Po Center for European Studies, Paris, France
