Nation-states around the globe, especially Western ones, are cracking down on migration for security reasons. International migration has become a key security issue and is perceived, by some, as an existential security threat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eSecuritization of Migration\u003c\/em\u003e is about the movement of people and the system of order underpinning the movement. In undertaking a comparative study of Canada and France, the study analyzes the process of securitizing migration. It explores the process of discursively and institutionally integrating international migration into security frameworks that emphasize policing and defence. Drawing upon social theory, migration studies, and Securitization Theory, Philippe Bourbeau seeks to understand the concepts of power underlying security frameworks and how these affect the treatment of migrants and immigrants. This book is one of the first to systematically and comparatively examine the role of political agents, media agents, and contextual factors in the process of securitizing migration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will be of interest to students and scholars concerned with comparative and theoretical approaches to security and migration studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philippe Bourbeau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415594510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415594516\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/17\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Philippe Bourbeau","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064936902911,"sku":"9780415594516","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_08846ae0-250e-416b-9d37-3bd2fa48d45c.jpg?v=1768672039","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-securitization-of-migration-philippe-bourbeau-9780415594516","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
