The revised fourth edition of Migration Theory continues to offer a
one-stop synthesis of contemporary thought on migration. Editors
Caroline B. Brettell and James F. Hollifield remain committed to
include coverage that is comparative and global in scope while
enhancing similarities and differences between one academic field
and the next. All chapters have been revised to highlight
cutting-edge issues in the field of migration studies today. The
fourth edition welcomes two new authors, Professors Marie Price and
Francois Heran, to offer a fresh approach with their chapters on
geography and demography, respectively. Designed for undergraduate
and graduate courses in migration studies, a primary goal of the
text is to assist instructors in guiding students who may have
little background on migration, to understand important issues and
the scientific debates. This ensures Migration Theory is a highly
valuable guide not only to the perspectives of one's own discipline
but also to those of cognate fields.

Understanding Global Migration offers scholars a groundbreaking
account of emerging migration states around the globe, especially
in the Global South. Leading scholars of migration have
collaborated to provide a birds-eye view of migration
interdependence. Understanding Global Migration proposes a new
typology of migration states, identifying multiple ideal types
beyond the classical liberal type. Much of the world's migration
has been to countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and South
America. The authors assembled here account for diverse histories
of colonialism, development, and identity in shaping migration
policy. This book provides a truly global look at the dilemmas of
migration governance: Will migration be destabilizing, or will it
lead to greater openness and human development? The answer depends
on the capacity of states to manage migration, especially their
willingness to respect the rights of the ever-growing portion of
the world's population that is on the move.
The fourth edition of this classic work provides a systematic,
comparative assessment of the efforts of major immigrant-receiving
countries and the European Union to manage migration, paying
particular attention to the dilemmas of immigration control and
immigrant integration. Retaining its comprehensive coverage of
nations built by immigrants—the so-called settler societies of
the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand— the new
edition explores how former imperial powers—France, Britain and
the Netherlands—struggle to cope with the legacies of
colonialism, how social democracies like Germany and the
Scandinavian countries balance the costs and benefits of migration
while maintaining strong welfare states, and how more recent
countries of immigration in Southern Europe—Italy, Spain, and
Greece—cope with new found diversity and the pressures of border
control in a highly integrated European Union. The fourth edition
offers up-to-date analysis of the comparative politics of
immigration and citizenship, the rise of reactive populism and a
new nativism, and the challenge of managing migration and mobility
in an age of pandemic, exploring how countries cope with a surge in
asylum seeking and the struggle to integrate large and culturally
diverse foreign populations.

First Published in 1991. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor and
Francis, an informa company.
The face of today's France does not resemble its forebear of a
quarter century ago; it is more like its European neighbors.
"Searching for the New France" provides an in-depth, historical
account of the changes that have swept France over the past three
decades and explores the political challenges that confront the
country today.
An array of distinguished international scholars examine changes
in French politics, society, and the economy. The compilation is
both comprehensive and topical in its coverage, and is unique in
the broad-based, historical, and interpretive nature of its essays.
The study will be invaluable to a wide range of scholars and
students in the social sciences
This timely study of the recent migration tides explores the
political and economic factors that have influenced the rise of
immigration in postwar Europe and the United States. It seeks to
explain immigration in terms of the globalization of labor markets
and the expansion of civil rights for marginal groups in the
liberal democracies. Immigration raises emotional issues of
nationalism and citizenship. Territorial norms of community and
nationhood come into conflict with the liberal ideal of free,
rational individuals seeking a better life for themselves and their
families. Yet immigration has been an essential ingredient in
economic growth. How then can liberal states reconcile economic
pressures to maintain adequate supplies of labor with political
pressures to protect citizenship and safeguard rights that are
accorded, in principle, to every member of society? Three prominent
democracies-France, Germany, and the United States-are chosen for
study because their experience illustrates the dilemma that liberal
states must face when trying to control immigration. The author
carefully distinguishes differences in the factors that influence
each state's struggle to resolve the status of the "guest" worker
and the "illegal" immigrant. Yet he finds that the accretion of
rights for aliens and the globalization of markets have led to a
convergence of immigration policies in the industrialized West.
This book is a systematic, comparative, multidisciplinary study of
immigration policy and policy outcomes in nine industrialised
democracies: the United States, Canada, Great Britain, France,
Germany, Belgium, Italy, Spain, and Japan. It has two central
theses. The first, the 'convergence hypothesis', is that there is a
growing similarity in immigration policy, results, and public
reaction within these nine countries. The second thesis, the 'gap
hypothesis', argues that the gap between the goals of immigration
policy and its outcomes is wide and growing wider. Beyond testing
these hypotheses against new evidence, the book seeks to explain
the declining effectiveness of immigration control measures in
today's labour-importing democracies. In each of the country
profiles, the author explains why certain measures were chosen, and
why they usually failed to achieve their stated objectives.
