Book Synopsis Migration, Refugees and Human Security in the Mediterranean and MENA by : Marion Boulby
Download or read book Migration, Refugees and Human Security in the Mediterranean and MENA written by Marion Boulby and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the Mediterranean/MENA migration crisis and explores the human security implications for migrants and refugees in this troubled region. Since the Arab uprisings of 2010/2011, the Middle East and North Africa region has experienced major political transformations and called into question the legitimacy of states in the region. Displaced populations continue to suffer due to the major conflicts in Syria, Iraq and elsewhere, causing fragmentation and dis-integration of communities. Contributors to this volume analyze how and why this crisis differs significantly from previous migration/refugee flows in the region, explain the historical and political antecedents of this crisis which have played a part in its shaping, and explore the relationship between human security and the protection of vulnerable individuals and groups. Marion Boulby is Associate Professor of History at Trent University, Canada. Kenneth Christie is Professor and Program Head of the Masters in Arts in Human Security and Peacebuilding at Royal Roads University, Canada.
Book Synopsis Human Security in South Asia by : P. R. Chari
Download or read book Human Security in South Asia written by P. R. Chari and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word security has a military connotation and refers to the activities involved in protecting or defending a country, in which the State has a central role. This book argues that the State provides as well as threatens security, and that by broadening the concept of security to include both military and non-military threats such as those related to ecological, social, economic and political causes, a system of checks and balances can be introduced to regulate the State.
Book Synopsis Transnational Migration and Human Security by : Thanh-Dam Truong
Download or read book Transnational Migration and Human Security written by Thanh-Dam Truong and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume places the migration-development-security nexus in the field of transnational studies. Rather than treating these three categories as self-evident, the essays excavate aspects of power and privilege built into their governing frameworks and conflicting rationales apparent in practices of control. Bringing together diverse experiences and case studies, the volume highlights the problematic nature of maintaining distinct and disconnected frameworks of governance. It argues for a new approach that demonstrates the significance and usefulness of comparative ethics in conceptualising migration from a human-centered and gendered perspective in order to address the multi-facetted and multi-dimensional nature and meanings of "security".
Book Synopsis Irregular Migration and Human Security in East Asia by : Jiyoung Song
Download or read book Irregular Migration and Human Security in East Asia written by Jiyoung Song and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across East Asia, intra-regional migration is more prevalent than inter-regional movements, and the region’s diverse histories, geopolitics, economic development, ethnic communities, and natural environments make it an excellent case study for examining the relationship between irregular migration and human security. Irregular migration can be broadly defined as people’s mobility that is unauthorised or forced, and this book expands on the existing migration-security nexus by moving away from the traditional state security lens, and instead, shifting the focus to human security. With in-depth empirical country case studies from the region, including China, Japan, North Korea, the Philippines, Burma/Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand and Singapore, the contributors to this book develop a human security approach to the study of irregular migration. In cases of irregular migration, such as undocumented labour migrants, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, trafficked persons, and smuggled people, human security is the cause and/or effect of migration in both sending and receiving countries. By adopting a human security lens, the chapters provide striking insights into the motivations, vulnerabilities and insecurities of migrants; the risks, dangers and illegality they are exposed to during their journeys; as well as the potential or imagined threats they pose to the new host countries. This multidisciplinary book is based on extensive fieldwork and interviews with migrants, aid workers, NGO activists and immigration officers. As such, it will appeal to students and scholars of Asian politics and security, as well as those with interests in international relations, social policy, law, geography and migration.

Book Synopsis Reimagining State and Human Security Beyond Borders by : Annamarie Bindenagel Šehović
Download or read book Reimagining State and Human Security Beyond Borders written by Annamarie Bindenagel Šehović and published by Palgrave Pivot. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delves into the diffuse relationship between states, citizens, and non-citizens. It explores the theoretical heritage of human security and identifies practical responses to the (re)negotiated relationships between states and citizens, responsibility and accountability. It argues that the changes to global order since the 1990s have resulted in a divergence from the understanding of the State as the arbiter within its territory, and as the guarantor of (human) security within its borders. In addition, while interventionist actions of various non-state actors to implement material guarantees of (human) security reaching both citizens and non-citizens (including refugees) have solved some immediate problems, they have not answered the question of where accountability ultimately lies.
Book Synopsis Migration, Gender and Social Justice by : Thanh-Dam Truong
Download or read book Migration, Gender and Social Justice written by Thanh-Dam Truong and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-09-06 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the product of a collaborative effort involving partners from Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America who were funded by the International Development Research Centre Programme on Women and Migration (2006-2011). The International Institute of Social Studies at Erasmus University Rotterdam spearheaded a project intended to distill and refine the research findings, connecting them to broader literatures and interdisciplinary themes. The book examines commonalities and differences in the operation of various structures of power (gender, class, race/ethnicity, generation) and their interactions within the institutional domains of intra-national and especially inter-national migration that produce context-specific forms of social injustice. Additional contributions have been included so as to cover issues of legal liminality and how the social construction of not only femininity but also masculinity affects all migrants and all women. The resulting set of 19 detailed, interconnected case studies makes a valuable contribution to reorienting our perceptions and values in the discussions and decision-making concerning migration, and to raising awareness of key issues in migrants’ rights. All chapters were anonymously peer-reviewed. This book resulted from a series of projects funded by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), Canada.
Book Synopsis Security, Insecurity and Migration in Europe by : Dr Gabriella Lazaridis
Download or read book Security, Insecurity and Migration in Europe written by Dr Gabriella Lazaridis and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-12-28 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having often been framed in terms of security concerns, migration issues have simultaneously given rise to issues of insecurity: on the one hand, security of borders, political, societal and economic security/insecurity in the host country; on the other, social, legal and economic concerns about human security, with regard to both EU citizens and migrants entering Europe. In terms of state security, migration is a core target of increasingly globally networked surveillance capabilities, whilst with respect to human security, it exposes the gap between the protections that migrants formally enjoy under international law and the realities they experience as they travel and work across different countries. Drawing on the latest research from across the EU, Security, Insecurity and Migration explores the concerns of states with regard to migration and the need to protect the fundamental rights of migrants. An interdisciplinary examination of the issues of security and insecurity raised by migration for states, their citizens and migrants themselves, this book will be of interest to scholars of politics, sociology and geography researching migration, race and ethnicity, human and state security and EU politics and policy.

Book Synopsis Globalisation, Human Security and Social Inclusion by : Olivia Bola J. Olajide Aluko
Download or read book Globalisation, Human Security and Social Inclusion written by Olivia Bola J. Olajide Aluko and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The groundwork for this volume was laid during a presentation I gave titled 'Migration as a security threat' at the 4th Diaspora International Conference organised by the World Association of Sustainable development (WASD) in the UK. Thus, this work is a contribution to a large body of literature on migration studies throughout the whole world. The process of writing this book has come at a time when a spotlight has been placed on immigration as a growing danger to national security. In the past decade, influxes of migrants into the UK have generated new challenges of balancing national security with human security for nation states, as a consequence of which apathy and antipathy towards newcomers is becoming a widespread issue, with many international communities slamming their doors on further immigration. Globalisation has opened avenues for goods and services to be exchanged between countries, thus increasing the tradability of skills and service-oriented activities. With increasing opportunities for jobs in certain sectors in the UK, it has sometimes been relatively easy for migrants to enter and work in the UK, as they have helped fill shortages in many areas of need, such as in the National Health Service (NHS). However, this situation has created new challenges for international communities, as countries struggle to balance economic growth with unease over outsiders. The expansion in commerce driven by globalisation has greatly benefited the UK economy; however, recent issues associated with Brexit have caused uncertainties concerning the future of trade, and one will not know to what extent that this process fully impacts the economy until after the deals with the European Union (EU) are concluded.The Brexit vote was largely driven by the British public's fears about mass immigration from Europe, and one of the major reasons for the European Union (EU) referendum of 23 June 2016 was to 'reclaim' British borders. Voters hope that Brexit will curtail free movement from the EU, which the government has said is on sustainable levels. An abiding concern has been that standards of living might fall due to rising challenges to British natives in the labour market if the mass population of migrants and refugees are allowed into the UK. Thus, many have deduced that the primary reason why 17.4 million Britons voted to leave the EU was to reduce immigration and its perceived threat to social and economic structures here in the UK. Others have argued that the real problems of immigration originate not with the EU migrants, but rather with those from outside the Eurozone. Approximately 184,000 migrants arrived in the UK from the EU in 2015, whereas some 188,000 migrants entered from non-EU countries over the same period (Arnheim, 2017). With "Immigration" being a major consideration in "Brexit," there is a need to carefully document the history of how people from other parts of the world have settled in Britain and the opportunities and challenges they have encountered in their settlement.Abiodun AlaoProfessor of African Studies, King's College London, Strand, London.This well-written volume provides coverage of a number of critical issues not commonly covered in studies of migration and immigration. There is a majority perception that migrants have travelled to the new countries to become 'spongers' who bring little or no added value to their new communities, the effect of which has been the creation of a range of barriers that prevent the new immigrant from settling into such societies. It is heartening to see how Olivia's book describes some of these barriers and refutes the perceptions underlying them. 'Lade Olugbemi, Convener The NOUS Organisation Ltd. www.nousorganisation.com

Book Synopsis International Migration and Security by : Elspeth Guild
Download or read book International Migration and Security written by Elspeth Guild and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day newspapers in the Western world carry articles about illegal immigrants, asylum seekers and other migrants. The focus of these articles varies greatly from migrants as a threat to one or another important social or societal interest, to migrants as an important asset to those same interests. The tone is most often emotional - whichever way the focus goes. The overall impact is to confuse: is migration good or bad? In this book Guild and van Selm seek to investigate these value assessments regarding migrants in Europe, the USA, Canada and Australia. While looking at issues such as security, human rights, legal systems, identity, racism, welfare, health and labour, the authors also respond to critics of immigration.
Book Synopsis Migration, Regional Integration and Human Security by : Harald Kleinschmidt
Download or read book Migration, Regional Integration and Human Security written by Harald Kleinschmidt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This original and timely book is the first to analyze the interconnectedness of migration, regional integration and the new security studies. Exploring the conflict between the actions of transnational migrants and state government policy in a series of theoretical chapters and regional case-studies, the book includes theoretical chapters which look at three key facets of the nation-state: population, territory and government, discussing the ways in which migration, regional integration and new security thinking challenge the accepted role and responsibilities of the state. Regional case-studies are also included which explore the specific challenges faced in regions including Central America, Asia and the Pacific and Central and Eastern Europe. As a book that asks crucial questions about the formulation of migration policies and the consequences of that success of failure, it will be essential reading for students and scholars of migration in sociology, politics and international relations and also for those with professional interests in the area.

Book Synopsis Human Security and Migration in Europe's Southern Borders by : Susana Ferreira
Download or read book Human Security and Migration in Europe's Southern Borders written by Susana Ferreira and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2018-12-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the management of migratory flows in the Mediterranean within an international security perspective. The intense migratory flows registered during the year 2015 and the tragedies in the Mediterranean Sea have tested the mechanisms of the Union’s immigration and asylum policies and its ability to respond to humanitarian crises. Moreover, these flows of varying intensities and geographies represent a threat to the internal security of the EU and its member states. By using Spain and Italy as case studies, the author theorizes that the EU, given its inability to adopt and implement a common policy to effectively manage migratory flows on its Southern border, uses a deterrence strategy based on minimum common denominators.
