2 Challenging Immigration Detention Academics, Activists and Policymakers Edited by Michael J. Flynn, Global Detention Project, Switzerland and Matthew B. Flynn, Georgia Southern University, US This is an excellent book on the highly topical subject of immigration detention. The contributors are experts in the field and their work together creates impressive new knowledge in the field. Elspeth Guild, Queen Mary University of London, UK Sept 2017 c 288 pp Hardback c Elgaronline Handbook on Migration and Security Edited by Philippe Bourbeau, University of Cambridge, UK Managing migration flows used to be the remit of government departments of the interior and labour. Now foreign offices, anti-terrorist agencies and ministries of defence are involved. What accounts for this dramatic process of securitization? In this pioneering book, the editor and contributors go beyond familiar post 9/11 narratives to untangle the theoretical, discursive, gendered and political aspects of the question. The authors cover topics like smuggling, trade, migration policies and health pandemics, doing so in a conceptually challenging and original way. Robin Cohen, University of Oxford, UK April 2017 c 488 pp Hardback Elgaronline Migration, Citizenship and Identity Selected Essays Stephen Castles, University of Sydney, Australia Stephen Castles provides a deeper understanding of recent migration crises in this fascinating and highly topical work. The book links theory and methodology to real-world migration experiences, with a truly global perspective and in-depth analysis of the links between economics, migration and asylum and refugee issues. June 2017 c 448 pp Hardback c Elgaronline Reimagining Home in the 21st Century Edited by Justine Lloyd and Ellie Vasta, Macquarie University, Australia This book is unsettling, in the most enjoyable way. Home has long been a scholarly obsession, but where others try to pin down its meaning, this collection revels in its multiplicity. By viewing home-making as practiced and mobile, these essays emphasise the interactional achievement of people, spaces and things. It examines its scale from mancaves to nations its spatiality on public transport as much as in residences and its temporality as constant re-creation. This approach flags the contradictory and ambivalent nature of home-making as individual and collective projects of identity. In a world marked by a crisis of home, this collection examines the relation between agency and power as we struggle for coherence and continuity. Greg Noble, University of Western Sydney, Australia pp Hardback Elgaronline Stephen Castles MIGRATION, CITIZENSHIP AND IDENTITY Selected Essays Digitalization, Immigration and the Welfare State Mårten Blix, Research Institute of Industrial Economics, Sweden Using the economic and social laboratory of Sweden, Mårten Blix provides a fascinating window into the future of the welfare state with the threats and opportunities from a massive increase in immigration and rapid digitilisation of the economy. The Swedish Model s core features of collective bargaining, broad unionisation and a strong fiscal base are eroding, increasing inequality and challenging the legitimacy of the political consensus to date. His interesting observations and balanced analysis of the growing importance of platform-based jobs and life-long learning have implications much beyond Sweden.

Banting, R. Bhopal, G. Craig, H. Dean, R. Sales, L. Sandercock, J. Solomos, W. Van Oorschott, S. Vertovec, F.

3 Graduate Migration and Regional Development An International Perspective Edited by Jonathan Corcoran, The University of Queensland, St Lucia and Queensland Centre for Population Research, Australia and Alessandra Faggian, Gran Sasso Science Institute, Italy Being mobile has become an ubiquitous modus operandi as the highly educated seek to advance, and take advantage of their human capital. Corcoran and Faggian s edited volume helps to understand the causes and consequences of university graduates choices to migrate or stay put. The selected contributions situated in ten OECD countries cover a wide spectrum of issues, from overeducation and wages to life-course linkages and impacts of the Great Recession. It is an insightful and timely account of the intellectual elite s sorting and redistribution in developed countries. Brigitte Waldorf, Purdue University, US May 2017 c 272 pp Hardback c Elgaronline New Horizons in Regional Science series Research Handbook on Climate Change, Migration and the Law Edited by Benoît Mayer, Chinese University of Hong Kong and François Crépeau, McGill University, Canada This comprehensive Research Handbook provides an overview of the debates on how the law does, and could, relate to migration exacerbated by climate change. It contains conceptual chapters on the relationship between climate change, migration and the law, as well as doctrinal and prospective discussions regarding legal developments in different domestic contexts and in international governance. Sept 2017 c 512 pp Hardback c Elgaronline Research Handbooks in Climate Law series The Concept of Climate Migration Advocacy and its Prospects Benoît Mayer, Chinese University of Hong Kong Foreword by François Crépeau Legal and political categories can sometimes confuse rather than aid solutions. So it is with the burgeoning field of climate-induced movement: are those compelled to move really refugees, simply migrants, or something else altogether? In this important book, Benoît Mayer forces us to confront the implications of labelling in the climate migration context, and skillfully leverages this debate to shine a light on broader questions of the evolving role of global governance. His forthright analysis is both refreshing and appropriately challenging. James C. Hathaway, University of Michigan Law School, US pp Hardback Elgaronline Elgar Studies in Climate Law series Why Health Services Need to Adapt to Large-scale Migration By Felicity Thomas European Migration Policy A Moving Target By Brad Blitz The Legal Protection of Refugees with Disabilities Forgotten and Invisible? Mary Crock, Laura Smith-Khan, Ron McCallum and Ben Saul, The University of Sydney, Australia This pioneering book weaves together international human rights law as well as international humanitarian and refugee law in order to address the plight of an estimated 10 million disabled refugees in the world. It tracks the steady evolution of international humanitarian and refugee law to keep pace with the insights and new standards in the UN convention on the rights of persons with disabilities, complementing legal analysis with a detailed and highly accessible examination of the situation on the ground. This work will endure as the standard reference work on refugees with disabilities, opening up a new field and doubtlessly attracting many others to contribute to it. It has a major role to play in framing a reform agenda to narrow the gap between the majestic generalities of the UN disability treaty and the actual living conditions of many millions of persons with disabilities.

This wide-ranging collection of articles explores these questions in different periods of history, regions of the world and traditions of faith. There is a particular emphasis on how religions inspire, manage and benefit from migration as well as how the experience of migration affects religious beliefs, identities and practices. These volumes examine the interface between religion and migration at levels of analysis ranging from the local to the global, and from the individual to the faith community. With an original introduction by the editor, this collection of papers will serve as an excellent reference source for scholars, practitioners and academics working in the field of migration and religion. 66 articles, dating from 1985 to 2014 Contributors include: J.

Adrian Favell, University of Leeds, UK pp Hardback Paperback Elgaronline Handbooks of Research on International Political Economy series Migration and Freedom Mobility, Citizenship and Exclusion Brad K. Blitz, University of Middlesex, UK and The Graduate Institute, Switzerland An advance, both analytically and empirically, for migration studies. With a base in international law and political theory, Blitz admirably opens up the ambiguous question of freedom of movement in relation to the restrictions still imposed by national borders and sovereignty, and the difficulties migrants face turning movement into successful settlement.

This spurs a growing need for an informed debate on the socio-economic implications of cultural diversity. This book offers a solid statistical and econometric perspective on this topical subject by bringing together studies from different countries in Europe and North America. The research sheds light on several consequences of cultural diversity including positive impacts on innovation, growth and entrepreneurship, as well as the negative social effects on communities. Throughout the volume, it is evident that the effects of cultural diversity on socio-economic outcomes depend largely on the characteristics of local economies, populations and communities pp Hardback Elgaronline Migration and Remittances Edited by John Connell, University of Sydney and Richard P.C.

Special attention is given to small island and Central Asian states, where remittances are of particular significance. The articles trace the recent historical evolution of remittances and concludes with an examination of policy implications in both sending and receiving countries. 32 articles, dating from 1978 to 2014 Contributors include: R.H.

Edited by Pauli Kettunen, University of Helsinki, Finland, Sonya Michel, University of Maryland, College Park, US and Klaus Petersen, University of Southern Denmark A hugely important contribution to one of the key questions of our time: how to combine, in a socially just way, the universalism embodied in national welfare states with the diversity and transnational mobility of populations. Using Myrdal s 1944 analysis, An American Dilemma: The Negro Problem and Modern Democracy, as a launch, the chapters circumnavigate this question 360 degrees across twentieth century history, across the Atlantic, and across the contemporary world, tracking the arguments this way and that.
