Irregular migration has emerged as an issue of intensive political
debate and governmental practice over recent years. Critically
intervening in debates around the governing of irregular migration,
The Contested Politics of Mobility explores the politics of
mobility through what is defined as an 'analytic of irregularity'.
It brings together authors who address issues of mobility and
irregularity from a range of distinct perspectives, to focus on the
politics of control as well as the politics of migration. The
volume develops an account of irregularity as a produced,
ambivalent and contested socio-political condition, showing how
this is activated through wide-ranging 'borderzones' that pull
between migration and control. Covering cases from across
contemporary North America and Europe and examining a range of
control mechanisms, such as biometrics, deportation and workplace
raiding, the volume refuses the term 'illegal' to describe
movements of people across borders. In so doing, it highlights the
complexity of relations between different regions and between a
politics of migration and a politics control, and makes a timely
intervention in the intersecting fields of critical citizenship,
migration and security studies. This book will be of interest to
students and scholars of politics, international relations,
sociology, migration and law.
