Against Borders. How to replace a failed immigration system
Original title: Contra las fronteras
A highly topical essay in the context of current world events, where the debate on immigration is taking centre stage.
In this enlightening and courageous essay, Gonzalo Fanjul, a researcher and anti-poverty activist, criticises the current immigration system and dismantles the xenophobic rhetoric of the far right (and not so far right) with intelligence and lucidity.
Challenging fear and propaganda, he proposes realistic alternatives for managing human flows and movements in a fairer and more intelligent way. The problem is not that people move, but how to ensure we all benefit from it.
The author argues that the global migration system is immoral and senseless, and that reforming it is one of the great challenges of our time.
