"This judiciously selected compilation shines by threading the critical link of insecurity through spaces of belonging, labor, and migration across time and contexts. Through the lens of precarity, the insightful, accessible, brilliant essays in this collection expose the complexity and fragility of life at the heart of our troubled times. It breaks new ground and will be read widely."- Cecilia Menjívar (co-editor of The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises) "This judiciously selected compilation shines by threading the critical link of insecurity through spaces of belonging, labor, and migration across time and contexts.

The essays brilliantly explore how the increasing precarization of life impacts the social and physical mobility of both citizens and noncitizens, blurring the boundaries between them and thus making possible a politics of commonality."- Jonathan Xavier Inda (author of Targeting Immigrants: Government, Technology, and Ethics) "Precarity and Belonging is a marvelous and timely collection.
