Sumario: | The concepts of 'citizenship' and 'border' have rarely been systematically brought together. New Border and Citizenship Politics challenges this, examining the intersections and dynamics of bordering processes and citizenship politics. Case-studies from the United States, Europe, the Mediterranean and Australia illuminate the connections, exploring the politics of redesigning borders, technologies of bordering and citizenship as border politics. The collection offers comprehensive coverage of bordering dynamics by transcending a state-centered perspective and taking the political agency of migrants into account, approaching the subject of borders as a genuine political and socially constructed phenomenon, focusing on its dynamic, conflictive and productive character. Arguing that international borders are key sites of regulation and struggles about belonging and mobility, the contributors stress the contested politics around borders and citizenship, and migrants themselves become both subjects and objects of politics. |
