'This book offers a powerful take on the human consequences of bordering Europe. In shifting the reader's gaze from migrants themselves to the EU roll-out of unprecedented migration controls it builds a distressing picture of a perennial political 'migration emergency'... a text fit for our times, speaking back to the dangerous political common-sense in a forceful collective voice: an urgent read', 'A significant contribution to the study of migration that challenges many of our assumptions about where borders are, how they work, and ultimately who is allowed to move', 'A collective, interdisciplinary, thoughtful, timely rendering of the new paradigm now governing how we live borders', This book offers a powerful take on the human consequences of bordering Europe. In shifting the reader's gaze from migrants themselves to the EU roll-out of unprecedented migration controls it builds a distressing picture of a perennial political 'migration emergency'... a text fit for our times, speaking back to the dangerous political common-sense in a forceful collective voice: an urgent read.

Synopsis
New Borders is the culmination of two years of research on the Mediterranean migration crisis of 2015-16. The book focuses on Lesbos, a Greek island that came under intense media and political scrutiny as more than one million people crossed its borders, changing and remaking life there. When these migrants--more than ten times the island's earlier population--landed on Lesbos's shores, local authorities were dismantled and replaced by supranational law and authority. In the ensuing months, reception turned to detention, rescue to registration, and refuge to duress. As borders across Europe have come to symbolize the European Union, this book provides answers to questions of European policy, the securitization of national boundaries, and how legislation determines who is free to belong to a place., To many, a border is a geographical fact; an immoveable, unchanging entity. But what happens when a border is subject to an emergency? Today, as millions are forced to migrate due to homelessness through war, famine and political unrest, it is important to look for a new understanding of the ways in which states use new bordering techniques to control populations.New Borders takes on this challenge by looking at the Greek island of Lesbos. The island came under intense media and political scrutiny as over 1 million people crossed through it. More than ten times the island's population disembarked on its shores: frantic with fear and hope, these newcomers would inadvertently change life and politics across the continent in equally frantic ways.The authors spent two years studying the changing meanings, materialities and functions of the European Union's border. They observed how the dismantling of local authorities gave way to supranational law and power, as the reception of the refugees slid into detention and refuge became duress. In doing so, they tackle questions on European policy, the securitisation of national and EU border and its dislocation into everyday life, now determining who 'belongs' where and when.
