Colonial legacies and the Experiences of Migrants in Mexico

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the complex relationships between migrants and local organisations that provide aid and support. By drawing on extensive fieldwork in Mexico, it suggests that humanitarian organisations are ambivalent institutions because they intend to help individuals whilst simultaneously reinforcing social and power inequalities.
