Anti-Immigrantism in Western Democracies: Statecraft, Desire and the Politics of Exclusion / Edition 1

by Roxanne Lynn Doty

Overview

Anti-Immigrantism in Western Democracies looks at immigration in the US, the UK and France within the context of globalisation and questions our understanding of the 'state'. Doty uses the concept of desire as a way to understand the forces at work in the social, political and economic life, to explore the impulses which move society towards various practices and policies, and finally to understand statecraft.
