Borders, Migration and Class in an Age of Crisis

Producing Immigrants and Workers

Beschreibung

Informed by Marxist theory, and challenging standard narratives about immigration, this book examines how categories of 'workers' and 'migrants' have been mobilised within representations of a 'migrant crisis' and a 'welfare crisis', to facilitate capitalist exploitation. It uses ideas from grassroots activism to propose alternative understandings of the relationship between borders, migration and class that foreground solidarity.
