'Inclusion and exclusion have already been explored by migration studies in various disciplines, but the focus has mostly been on migration policies that define who is desirable and who is not, who is accepted and who is rejected at the border between countries, and who is excluded and who is included. In contrast, this book delves into the historically and culturally informed social experience of migrants. The volume explores "How it feels" to be included or excluded, what are the feelings of migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers when they are in the liminal space between the inside and the outside.'
