Reviews
Against the backdrop of increasingly restricted resettlement practices marking the global refugee protecting regime, international protection can be studied from a top-down approach and from a bottom-up approach. The book Tracing Asylum Journeys: Transnational Mobility of Non-European Refugees to Canada via Turkey is a well-designed research through a fine balance between these two perspectives. The book is an attempt at understanding asylum journeys beyond destination and sending country dichotomy that has dominated migration studies until very recently [...]. Overall, [it] is a very welcome contribution in a context where resettlement options are getting far more restricted to few eligible and lucky ones. Although the analysis focuses on the winners of resettlement lottery, this does not prevent the book from being a powerful and bottom-up critique of the current protection regime. The book is of interest especially to students of asylum, legal studies and geography. The author has a captivating and at times poetic prose. I believe the book can provide a rich course material for undergraduate and graduate students in political science, sociology and related subjects. - Aysen UEstubici, Asian and Pacific Migration Journal
