The international movement of people is provoking worldwide anxiety
and apprehension. Nation-states around the globe, especially
Western ones, are cracking down on migration for security reasons.
International migration has become a key security issue and is
perceived, by some, as an existential security threat. The
Securitization of Migration is about the movement of people and the
system of order underpinning the movement. In undertaking a
comparative study of Canada and France, the study analyzes the
process of securitizing migration. It explores the process of
discursively and institutionally integrating international
migration into security frameworks that emphasize policing and
defence. Drawing upon social theory, migration studies, and
Securitization Theory, Philippe Bourbeau seeks to understand the
concepts of power underlying security frameworks and how these
affect the treatment of migrants and immigrants. This book is one
of the first to systematically and comparatively examine the role
of political agents, media agents, and contextual factors in the
process of securitizing migration. The book will be of interest to
students and scholars concerned with comparative and theoretical
approaches to security and migration studies.
