Migration is an enormously broad topic of academic enquiry engaging
researchers from many different social science disciplines. A wide
variety of contributors from across the globe capture some of the
methodological and conceptual range of migration research in the
discipline of Geography today. This volume covers a large area
geographically and in the expanse of subject areas involved:
eighteen chapters investigate migration from, to, or within at
least fifteen countries, with several sections spanning multiple
places and scales. Many chapters are deeply concerned with
vulnerable populations, which is not only a characteristic of much
immigration scholarship but also one that connects with other areas
of geography. The study of geographical assertions of sovereign
power via the discourses of disorder, chaos, and crisis, shows that
in these transnational times, national power is being violently
reasserted, on, within, and beyond international borders. Other
important topics covered include migration and climate change,
"illegality", security, government policy, labor, family, and
sexual orientation. This book was previously published as a special
issue of Annals of the Association of American Geographers.
