PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Lucy Mayblin is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Sheffield. Joe Turner is Lecturer in Politics at the University of York.
In this book, Lucy Mayblin and Joe Turner offer a thoroughgoing critique of the analytical and political blind spots that plague migration studies when posited from the unexamined Eurocentric standpoint of formerly imperial nation-states. This book provides a synoptic overview of how postcolonial and decolonial critiques are utterly necessary to adequately comprehend cross-border, intercontinental human mobility in our global society, and it makes an impassioned appeal to situate the contemporary politics of migration, citizenship and race within the enduring legacies of colonialism. Nicholas De Genova, University of Houston This book is sorely needed. If your students - or you yourself - need to navigate the complex terrain of global violence, expropriation and the movement of people over a very long period, let them read this. Gargi Bhattacharyya, University of East London The book is a sharp and salutary read. Ethnic and Racial Studies A powerful case for rethinking migration under the lens of colonialism and its enduring legacies [...A] much needed and long-awaited intervention, which renders readily available key literatures that migration scholars should engage with.
