In Border and Rule, one of North America's foremost thinkers and
immigrant rights organizers delivers an unflinching examination of
migration as a pillar of global governance and gendered racial
class formation. Harsha Walia disrupts easy explanations for the
migrant and refugee crises, instead showing them to be the
inevitable outcomes of conquest, capitalist globalization, and
climate change generating mass dispossession worldwide. Border and
Rule explores a number of seemingly disparate global geographies
with shared logics of border rule that displace, immobilize,
criminalize, exploit, and expel migrants and refugees. With her
keen ability to connect the dots, Walia demonstrates how borders
divide the international working class and consolidate imperial,
capitalist, ruling class, and racist nationalist rule. Ambitious in
scope and internationalist in orientation, Border and Rule breaks
through American exceptionalist and liberal responses to the
migration crisis and cogently maps the lucrative connections
between state violence, capitalism, and right-wing nationalism
around the world. Illuminating the brutal mechanics of state
formation, Walia exposes US border policy as a product of violent
territorial expansion, settler-colonialism, enslavement, and
gendered racial exclusion. Further, she compellingly details how
Fortress Europe and White Australia are using immigration diplomacy
and externalized borders to maintain a colonial present, how
temporary labor migration in the Arab Gulf states and Canada is
central to citizenship regulation and labor control, and far-right
nationalism is escalating deadly violence in the US, Israel, India,
the Philippines, Brazil, and across Europe, while producing a
disaster of statelessness for millions elsewhere. A must-read in
these difficult times of war, inequality, climate change, and
global health crisis, Border and Rule is a clarion call for
revolution. The book includes a foreword from renowned scholar
Robin D. G. Kelley and an afterword from acclaimed
activist-academic Nick Estes.
