Описание: Explores the unintended consequences of compassion in the world of immigration politics. This book focuses on France and its humanitarian immigration practices to argue that a politics based on care and protection can lead the state to view issues of immigration and asylum through a medical lens.
Описание: The world is witnessing a rapid rise in the numbers of migrants--voluntary and involuntary, internal and international, authorized and unauthorized--as well as victims of human trafficking. In just the first quarter of this century alone, more than 65 million people have been forced to escape home into the unknown. The slow-motion disintegration of failing states with feeble institutions, war and terror, demographic imbalances, unchecked climate change, and cataclysmic environmental disruptions have contributed to these catastrophic migrations that are placing millions of human beings at grave risk. Humanitarianism and Mass Migration is the first book of its kind that fills the scholarly gap of examining the current uncharted contours of mass migration. Exceptionally curated with contributions from Jacqueline Bhabha, Richard Mollica, Irina Bokova, Pedro Noguera, Hirokazu Yoshikawa, James A. Banks, Mary Waters, and many others, the volume's interdisciplinary and comparative lens showcases new research that reveals how current structures of health, mental health, and education are anachronistic and out of touch with the entirely new cartographies of mass migrations. And with an eye towards a hopeful and realistic future, the volume provides clear and concrete recommendations of the work we must do to mine the inherent agency, cultural resources, resilience, and capacity for self-healing to help forcefully displaced populations.

Описание:
In migration studies, the nexus between migration and development in the global South has been meticulously debated. However, a unanimous resolution to this debate has not been found, due to the ever-changing nature of international migration. This book advances knowledge on the global debate on the migration-development relationship by documenting experiences in a number of countries in South Asia.
Drawing on the experiences of global South Asians, this volume documents the impact of migration on the social, economic, and political fields in the broader context of development. It also presents a regional experience by looking into the migration-development nexus in the context of South Asia, and analyses the role South Asian migrants and diaspora communities play in the South Asian society. Contributions from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds, including sociology, anthropology, political science, international relations and economics, document the development implications of South Asian migration. Broad in scope in terms of contents, timeline of migration, and geographical coverage, the book presents empirically-based case studies involving India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Nepal and their emigrants living and working in different parts of the world.
Going beyond reporting the impacts of migration on economic development by highlighting the implications of 'social development' on society, this book provides a fascinating contribution to the fields of Asian Development, Migration Studies and South Asian Studies.
