Borders, mobility and belonging in the era of Brexit and Trump

Providing new insights into the politics of migration and citizenship in the UK and the US, this book challenges the increasingly prevalent view of migration and migrants as threats and of formal citizenship as a necessary marker of belonging.

Instead the authors offer an analysis of migration and citizenship in practice, as a counterpoint to simplistic discourses.

The book uses cutting-edge academic work on migration and citizenship to address three themes central to current debates - borders and walls, mobility and travel, and belonging.
