Migration and Xenophobia: A Three Country Exploration examines issues of migration and xenophobia using the experiences of three nations: the United States, South Africa, and Malta. Through the cases, Kyle Farmbry builds a larger dialogue examining issues related to patterns of movement and the xenophobic realities encountered with such migrations. The book builds upon projections from the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Organization for Migration that say the world will experience a continued wave of movement between people and place for the foreseeable future are true, then the lessons from the nations examined here have implications for a broader set of realities related to migration. The experiences of these nations represent a microcosm of what is happening globally in relation to nation-based questions on the migration realities of the early twenty-first century.

Farmbry’s timely Migration and Xenophobia offers a wealth of historical context to anyone concerned with the responses to and representations of the current migrant/refugee crisis. Weaving together three distinct national experiences of migration—South Africa, Malta and the United States—Farmbry contextualizes migration and both its causes and responses as ongoing cultural dynamics, embedded within such texts as sacred books, oral traditions and reactionary legal code, rather than a sudden emergent crisis. Farmbry’s valuable contribution to this crucial conversation can aid all stakeholders craft a more humane and sustainable response to the ongoing global discourse on migration and its representations.
