| Summary |
"The essays in this volume, although they mostly predate 2010 'population debate', explore the retun in contemporary form of many historical practices and discourses for policing racial-national borders. Focusing on three key groups of outstiders within - temporary workers, international students and refugees and asylum seekers - the contributions address key aspects of border tensions and panics as the boundaries of belonging and cultural citizenship are continually drawn, patrolled and policed in new and old ways."--Back cover |
