While much of the news is bad, the final chapters suggest ways forward, reminding us of the possibility and impact of resistance. This is urgent and necessary reading for everyone concerned with contemporary politics and practices of migration control."Mary Bosworth, University of Oxford "A brilliant account of the recent evolution of the asylum system at a global level, The Death of Asylum is informed by a single cohesive current of groundbreaking theoretical analysis. One of the most important and urgent books about forced migration ever written."Michael Collyer, University of Sussex "A critical contribution to various debates on how geography can be used by state actors to protect their specific and rivalrous interests."LSE Review of Books "In its rich blend of empirical data, historical and contemporary detail, and insightful analysis, this is an essential book which deserves to become a classic of migration studies."Race & Class
