Excluding Diversity Through Intersectional Borderings: IMISCOE Research Series

Editat de Laura Merla, Sarah Murru, Giacomo Orsini, Tanja Vuckovic Juros

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 aug 2024

Considerăm acest volum o resursă academică de prim rang pentru cercetătorii și studenții din domeniul științelor politice și sociologiei, fiind esențial pentru înțelegerea modului în care reglementările migrației se intersectează cu politicile familiale și de gen. Publicată în 2024 în cadrul IMISCOE Research Series, lucrarea oferă un cadru analitic riguros pentru examinarea politicilor de excludere care vizează migranții în contextul ascensiunii mișcărilor conservatoare și de extremă dreapta.

Remarcăm o progresie logică a conținutului, structurată în două părți fundamentale. Prima parte decodifică mecanismele instituționale și narativele populiste — de la șovinismul bunăstării în Spania și Polonia până la politicile de separare a familiilor la graniță. A doua parte schimbă perspectiva către micro-sociologie, analizând modul în care indivizii navighează, internalizează sau rezistă acestor frontiere simbolice și materiale în viața de zi cu zi.

Excluding Diversity Through Intersectional Borderings este comparabil cu Migrant Marginality de Philip Kretsedemas în rigurozitate, dar este actualizat pentru transformările politice recente din ultimul deceniu, punând un accent mult mai pronunțat pe „politizarea intimității”. Această abordare continuă temele explorate de Laura Merla în lucrări anterioare, precum Making Multicultural Families in Europe sau Transnational Families, Migration and the Circulation of Care, trecând însă de la analiza structurilor familiale la modul în care statul folosește normele de gen pentru a defini cine merită sau nu să fie inclus în comunitatea națională. Stilul este academic, dens în date empirice, oferind o perspectivă critică asupra modului în care frontierele moderne nu sunt doar linii geografice, ci filtre socio-politice complexe.

Recomandăm această carte profesioniștilor din politici publice și academicienilor care doresc să înțeleagă mecanismele subtile de excludere din societățile occidentale. Cititorul câștigă o viziune clară asupra modului în care retorica politică devine practică administrativă, afectând drepturile fundamentale ale familiilor de migranți. Este un instrument teoretic actual pentru oricine studiază intersecția dintre migrație, drepturile omului și sociologia familiei.

Despre autor

Laura Merla este profesor de sociologie și un cercetător consacrat în domeniul familiilor transnaționale și al migrației. Lucrările sale anterioare s-au concentrat pe circulația îngrijirii și dinamica familiilor multiculturale în Europa, stabilind-o ca o voce autoritară în guvernanța migrației.

Descriere scurtă

This open access book critically examines how discourses and policies target and exclude migrants and their families in Europe and North America along racial, gender and sexuality lines, and how these exclusions are experienced and resisted. Building on the influential notion of intersectional borderings, it delves deep into how these discourses converge and diverge, highlighting the underlying normative constructs of family, gender, and sexuality. First, it examines how radical-right and conservative political movements perpetuate exclusionary practices and how they become institutionalized in migration, welfare, and family policies. Second, it examines the dynamic responses they provoke—both resistance and reinforcement—among those affected in their everyday lives. Bringing together studies from political and social sciences, it offers a vital contribution to the expanding field of migrant family governance and exclusion and is essential for understanding the complex processes of exclusion and the movements that challenge and sustain them. It expands academic discussions on populism and the politics of exclusion by linking them to the politicization of intimacy and family life. With diverse case studies from Europe, North, and Central America, it appeals to students, academics, and policymakers, informing future mobilizations against discriminatory and exclusionary tendencies in politics and society.
