Refugees, Transnationalism and the State

This book examines the impact of transnationalism on the changing relationship between refugees and the state. It has three main themes: the unresolved theoretical debate about the impact of transnationalism on national-states; the increasingly transnational context within which asylum seekers and refugees move and are controlled and managed; the future of asylum and prospects for asylum seekers and refugees. The book is theoretically innovative, topical and based on recent, original empirical material.
