‘Recent years has seen a flowering of International Relations and IPE approaches to international migration. The subject, indeed, poses a challenge to existing paradigms, as a key dimension of globalisation and the complex de- and re-bordering of politics and society worldwide. Talani and McMahon have done a great service for the field in preparing this excellent collection of overviews that will be an essential tool in teaching and research.’
