Robin Cohen

Migration and its Enemies (eBook, PDF)

Global Capital, Migrant Labour and the Nation-State

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In this book Robin Cohen shows how the preferences, interests and actions of the three major social actors in international migration policy - global capital, migrant labour and national politicians - intersect and often contradict each other. Cohen addresses these vital questions in a wide-ranging, lucid and accessible account of the historical origins and contemporary dynamics of global migration.
