Who steals jobs? Who owns jobs? Focusing on the competitive labour market, this book scrutinises the narratives created around immigration and automation. The authors explore how the advances in AI and demands for constant flow of immigrant workers eradicate political and working rights, fuelling fears over job theft and ownership. Shedding light on the multiple ways in which employment is used as an instrument of neoliberal governance, this revealing book sparks new debate on the role of automation and migration policies. It is an invaluable resource for academics and practitioners working in the areas of immigration and labour, capitalism and social exclusion, and economic models and political governance.

“Theoretically outstanding and empirically informed, Maronitis and Pencheva present us with a magisterial account of the societal and moral concerns of restrictive immigration regimes, with rapid rescaling of work conducted by robots, AI and algorithms. While immigrants labour in dirty, dangerous and demeaning conditions, automation solutions alleviate – though also replace – (the need for) migrant workers.” Roxana Barbulescu, University of Leeds
