Description
Summary:With this volume, the editors propose a multi-dimensional and critical review of migrants’ vulnerabilities. They argue that a deeper understanding of vulnerability is paramount to discuss empowerment and resilience. Regardless of their motivations, migrants can face vulnerabilities at any of the stages of their journey. These vulnerabilities may change over time for better or worse, corresponding with a person’s legal status, migratory path and the practices of migration regulation. This book addresses vulnerability from an interdisciplinary and intersectional perspective. It brings together latest academic research and practitioners’ insights to help reception societies adapt and improve their dealing with migrants’ vulnerabilities. The Editors Nicolas Fromm is Postdoctoral Researcher in International Relations at Helmut Schmidt University Hamburg. Annette Jünemann is Professor for International Relations at Helmut Schmidt University Hamburg. Hamza Safouane is Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute for Migration Research and Intercultural Studies at Osnabrück University
