Abstract:
This book features a compilation of macro-oriented immigration studies by leading scholars. The authors focus on the two aspects of the nation-state challenged by migration: the sovereignty over entry and expulsion, and unitary membership as citizenship. It presents opposing views on sovereignty, the impact of globalisation on immigration control, and the constraints faced by states in this policy domain. It addresses recent debate on post-national membership, particularly the issue of whether post-national membership is a stable alternative to, or temporary deviation from national citizenship.
Keywords: immigration, nation-state, sovereignty, citizenship, post-national membership Table of Contents
