"The Routledge Handbook Of The Politics Of Migration In Europe | Politics

The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe provides a rigorous and critical examination of what is exceptional about the European politics of migration and the study of it. Crucially this book goes beyond the study of the politics of migration in the handful of Western European countries to showcase a European approach to the study of migration politics inclusive of tendencies in all geographical parts of Europe (including Eastern Europe the Western Balkans Turkey) and of influences of the European Union (EU) on countries in Europe and beyond. Each expert chapter reviews the state of the art field of studies on a given topic or question in Europe as a continent while highlighting any dimensions in scholarly debates that are uniquely European. Thematically organised it permits analytically fruitful comparisons across various geographical entities within Europe and broadens the focus on European immigration politics and policies beyond the traditional limitations of Western European immigrant-receiving societies. The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe will be essential reading and an authoritative reference for scholars students researchers and practitioners involved in and actively concerned about research on migration and European and EU Politics.|The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe | Politics
