Reviews
"""Read this ground-breaking collection - it will challenge you to think, read, talk, and think again about what you thought you knew of global migration! Grounded in serious considerations of the pluralithic perspectives of children and youth migrants, this book challenges us to reconsider who are migrants, what are the ideologies and politics which shape their lives, and whose perspective of migration counts. This analysis of young people’s experiences of migration in the Global South and North opens new frontiers of for migration studies which will revitalize teaching and research on mobility, diversity and integration."" Khayaat Fakier, Prince Claus Chair of Equity and Development, ISS ""This is a much-needed book that focuses on children to challenge nation-centric epistemologies of migration and migrants. Strident nationalist politics often obscure the ways in which migrants are constructed as ""the other"" and blamed for a number of social problems. By bringing children to the center, this book shows how states engage in the construction of ideologies against migrants through education systems, along with explicit policies and practices that violate the rhetoric about integration, equality and freedom. We learn from cases in countries on the edges of the Global North as well as the South so that the theoretical approach rests on a global array of cases. A significant effort towards decolonializing migrant-focused research."" Bandana Purkayastha, Professor, Sociology & Asian American Studies, and Associate Dean Social Sciences, University of Connecticut, USA"
