'This is an ambitious, nuanced and challenging overview of the ways in which migration to the EU has become the subject of policy discourses focused on security and the policing of borders. It addresses questions that are at the heart of contemporary politics across Europe and the essays in this collection are a striking reminder that critical scholarship has an important role to play in challenging received wisdoms.' John Solomos, Professor of Sociology, University of Warwick, UK
