People have sought new lands and opportunities, driven by diverse factors ranging from political turmoil and war to economic struggles, famine, and even the impact of climate change. However, our contemporary world is marked by a new era of globalization, where international institutions and organizations foster increased cooperation, leading to transformations in the capitalistic system and influencing migration in myriad ways.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBorders and Barriers: Navigating the Postcolonial Era of Migration in a Globalized World\u003c\/em\u003e by Agneta Moulettes critically analyzes the intersection of national culture and immigration. Moulettes exposes how contemporary anti-immigrant narratives persist, starting with a concise overview of European and global colonial history and its justifications. She provides a comprehensive examination of colonialism's impact on countries like Great Britain, France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, and Sweden across Africa, America, and Asia, highlighting how internal colonialism manifests and casts the immigrant as the colonized, and the native population as the colonizer. Moulettes also explores the influence of colonial discourse on integration policies, cultural differences, and perceptions of national culture. This study engages critical management and postcolonial theories, questioning prevailing perspectives and scrutinizing policies promoting assimilation, immigrants' economic roles, and the dehumanization of minority groups.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis work is invaluable for scholars and researchers in migration studies, globalization, postcolonial studies, cultural studies, and political science, providing a comprehensive analysis of historical and contemporary migration trends and their intersection with globalization and colonial legacies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Agneta Moulettes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1835495273\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781835495278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Emerald Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/21\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.44d","brand":"Agneta Moulettes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46334737645823,"sku":"9781835495278","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ddba8d9a-b868-4257-a50a-671be08b805b.jpg?v=1731467632","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/borders-and-barriers-agneta-moulettes-9781835495278","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
