Reviews
Given the contemporary salience and topicality of issues around international migration, this book represents an original and critical contribution to debates. Unusually, it examines migration through an explicit engagement with spatial perspectives, yet at the same time draws upon and brings together literature from a number of different disciplines, making it an appealing and highly valuable resource for a wide and varied audience. Johanna L. Waters, University of Liverpool, UK In a market dominated by texts by anthropologists, economists, political scientists, and sociologists, such a contribution is long overdue. Samers "s sensitive treatments of concepts such as the friction of distance, context, and scale cast new light on terms like transnationalism and social networks as well as on the practices that compel people to leave home to try to make a life for themselves and their families elsewhere. Richard Wright, Dartmouth College, USA Migrationexplores the local contexts shaping migrants' lives by going beyond - and beneath - the usual national statistics and transnational flows. As a conceptual roadmap to the ever-expanding migration literature, it should be essential reading for both established scholars and those new to migration studies.

Synopsis
In the context of global security concerns, humanitarian crises and skill shortages migration and immigration have become central to economic, political and social debates at the beginning of the twenty-first century. And while migration and immigration have certainly not escaped the attention of social scientists, the study of both remains the most 'under-serviced' academic domain with respect to introductory texts. It is not surprising then that even fewer books have explored the contours of these social phenomena from an explicitly geographical perspective - in other words, in terms of 'space', 'place' and 'scale'. Migration is an advanced, yet accessible, introduction to migration and immigration in a global context. It offers a critical, multi-disciplinary approach to the subject, borrowing from human geography, political science, social anthropology and sociology. However, unlike other broad volumes on the subject, it emphasizes a theoretical and conceptual approach to the study of migration. Specifically, Migration adopts a unique geographical approach by employing spatial concepts such as place, scale and territory. Using these spatial concepts, the author argues that most studies of migration begin with either an undue emphasis on nation-states as a lens on migration or on the contrary rely on exaggerated notions of transnationalism. Migration neither neglects the importance of nation states nor the significance of transnationalism, but it focuses on how local contexts matter to migration. The book covers such topics as migration categories, the explanation of different forms of migration, migration and employment, the geopolitics of migration and immigration and citizenship, rights, and belonging. This text is not simply an encyclopaedic overview of migration theories, trends and facts; rather, it is designed to have lasting intellectual value by providing particular arguments in each theme-based chapter. While it advocates certain arguments, it is also clearly written in an engaging and accessible manner for an undergraduate audience. Its clear structure is complemented by a combination of pedagogical features, such as case-study boxes, summary questions at the end of each chapter and a glossary. The book is designed for courses and modules on migration and immigration at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels and both students and academics will find it exceptionally useful., In the context of global security concerns, humanitarian crises and skill shortages migration and immigration have become central to economic, political and social debates at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

The book is designed for courses and modules on migration and immigration at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels and both students and academics will find it exceptionally useful., Migration is a critical, introductory text emphasising the issues, experiences, impacts, and policies associated with low-income/low-skilled migration, with some attention to wealthier and more skilled migrants. The chapters focus on key terms and key issues, such as the apparent contradiction between labour restrictions and labour recruitment in the wealthier countries. As a distinctly geographical contribution to the literature, it is the only text on migration and immigration that explicitly focuses on the significance of 'space', 'place' and 'socio-territoriality'. It maintains a multi-disciplinary perspective that will appeal to a wide audience of academics and students interested in a critical introduction to migration and immigration.

- d***d (47)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThis book is fantastic! The quality is exactly as described, it’s in great condition, the appearance is clean and basically brand-new, and it came at an excellent price. This is a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. They packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively throughout the process. This was an excellent buying experience and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again.
- 0***1 (1592)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis book arrived within the time period given and was in the 'very good' condition described. Unfortunately, only being packaged in a plastic bag to traverse the Atlantic meant that all four corners got a battering (I would be happy to pay bit more in future for a bit of cardboard support in packaging) but all in all, the price was good and overall service for books that are difficult to get over here, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this seller. Will buy again from them.
