Reviews
The wave of solidarity with refugees is a most positive response to the supporters of a Fortress Europe. At the same time, it rises the question of the durability of these expressions of alliances between the North and the South, face to financial and political crises. Theoretically innovative and empirically rich, this volume helps addressing fundamental questions about the creation of spaces of resistance by building upon Antonio Gramsci's reflections on the Southern question. A very stimulating reading. -- Donatella Della Porta, Professor of Sociology, Department of Political and Social Sciences, European University Institute This book's Gramscian perspective provides a welcome corrective to nationalist migration scholarship that naturalizes borders and a migrant/native divide. By placing migration within the analytic of the dynamics of global capitalism the volume provides valuable insights into the relationship between the diverse oppressive effects of the dominant order and the emergence of solidarities between migrants and non-migrant actors. -- Nina Glick Schiller, Emeritus Professor, Social Anthropology, University of Manchester and Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology
