This open access book contributes new theoretical and comparative
insights on migrant agency, undocumentedness and informality in
non-Western, non-democratic migration regimes. The book is
conceived as a critical reflection on the contemporary migration
regime scholarship, and, more generally, on comparative migration
studies, which primarily focus on migrants' experiences and
immigration policies in the context of liberal democracies in North
America and Western Europe. Addressing this gap is particularly
important when considering the fact that many new migration hubs
are nondemocratic, which in turn requires us to revise or produce
new frameworks of analysis beyond existing and dominant
Western-centric migration regime typologies. This book takes up the
case study of Central Asian migrants in Russia and Turkey-two
archetypal non-Western, nondemocratic regimes and key migration
hotspots worldwide-and investigates how migration governance
outcomes are shaped by the informal power geometries and extralegal
processes in physical and digital landscapes in which migrant
workers, employers, middlemen, landlords, street world actors and
street-level bureaucrats negotiate the contemporary migration
system. This lively ethnography presents new empirical material, a
comparative perspective and methodological tools for studying
migrants' experiences and migration governance processes in
non-Western migration regimes.
