group of pupils, often in particularly challenging contexts. There

"This very useful and authoritative compendium explicates
thirty-eight concepts central to analysis of international
migration. It is accessible to undergraduate students and even can
enrich graduate courses. It nicely complements books like The Age
of Migration or Exceptional People. Concision is a virtue " - Mark
J. Miller, University of Delaware "An essential introduction to
migration that is international in scope and rigorous in its
attention to the scholars, nuances and debates in the field." -
Maggie O'Neill, Durham University "Demonstrates that the study of
international migration has really come of age. From acculturation
to undocumented immigration, the authors consider more than three
dozen concepts at the heart of migration studies. Clearly written
in a highly readable style, the book is a valuable resource for
students and scholars alike." - Nancy Foner, City University of New
York This book provides lucid and intuitive explanations of the
most important migration concepts as used in classrooms, among
policymakers, and in popular and academic discourse. Arguing that
there is a clear need for a better public understanding of
migration, it sets out to clarify the field by exploring relevant
concepts in a direct and engaging way. Each concept: Includes an
easy to understand definition Provides real-world examples Gives
suggestions for further reading Is carefully cross-referenced to
other related concepts It is an ideal resource for undergraduate
and post-graduate students studying migration in sociology,
politics, development and throughout the social sciences, as well
as scholars in the field and practitioners in governmental and
non-governmental organizations.
