Description
Depuis 2015, les mouvements transfrontaliers de migrants et de réfugiés ont atteint des niveaux sans précédent. La guerre, la persécution, l’extrême pauvreté et la désertification ont forcé des millions de personnes à fuir leur pays d’Asie centrale, du Levant ou de l’Afrique du Nord. Les pays du Nord ont réagi de manières diverses, certains ouvrant leurs frontières à un nombre historique de réfugiés et de demandeurs d’asile, alors que d’autres ont encore resserré leurs politiques frontalières.
La hausse radicale de l’activité migratoire dans le monde a engendré des débats controversés dans les milieux politiques et universitaires. La gestion de la circulation transfrontalière est l’un des dossiers politiques les plus épineux du xxie siècle, puisqu’il soulève des questions fondamentales liées aux droits de la personne, à la responsabilité des États et à la sécurité. Les articles de recherche sur les frontières et la migration se sont rapidement multipliés pour répondre à l’urgence accrue de la situation, vu le nombre record de personnes déplacées. Pourtant, les études frontalières s’intéressent habituellement peu aux flux migratoires, tandis que les études migratoires ont pour leur part sous-estimé la nature changeante des frontières.
Borders and Migration: The Canadian Experience in Comparative Perspective jette un regard nouveau[MC1] sur l’interrelation entre la migration et la gestion frontalière. En prenant le Canada comme point de départ et en mettant l’accent sur les réfugiés et les migrants irréguliers, cet ouvrage multidisciplinaire explore comment les divers niveaux de gestion ont facilité ou au contraire restreint les flux migratoires transfrontaliers. Il fait la lumièresur la gestion changeante des phénomènes migratoires et des frontières. En établissant des comparaisons entre le Canada et d’autres parties du monde, les auteurs mettent en relief les tendances et les défis de notre temps.

Excerpt: Borders and Migration: The Canadian Experience in Comparative Perspective (contributions by Asad G. Kiyani, Birte Wassenberg, Can E. Mutlu, Claude Beaupré, Donald Galloway, Edward Boyle, Franziska Fischer, Naomi Chi, Sabine Lehr, Scott D. Watson, Solomon Wong, Victoria Simmons & Emmanuel Brunet-Jailly; series edited by Geneviève Tellier; edited by Michael J. Carpenter, Melissa Kelly & Oliver Schmidtke)
“Linking the contributions of two seemingly disparate fields-migration studies and border studies requires a broader understanding of the current border-migration nexus. The nature, role, and purpose of borders have changed significantly in recent years in response to larger structural processes, with profound implications for how migration is managed and understood.”
