The abstract and utopian theorising of many liberals and leftists on the migration question often ignores or downplays patterns of displacement and brutal class dynamics, which divide and weaken working people while empowering the ruling class. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this important new book, Hannah Cross provides a sober analysis of the class antagonisms of migration in the context of the nation, social democracy, and the racialized ordering of the world. Bringing Marxist methodology and strategy to a careful analysis of existing emancipatory movements, she sets out the programmes and approaches that are needed to promote global worker solidarity and create a future in which cheap labour is no longer a mainstay of wealthy economies. This focus on the labouring classes allows her to identify some important new directions for migration in a world beyond capitalism, exploitation and injustice. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book will be essential reading for students, scholars and general readers interested in the politics and political economy of migration in a world unhelpfully caught between racist authoritarian capitalism and the wishful-thinking of contemporary left-liberalism.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface and Acknowledgements \u003cp\u003eAbbreviations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction: Migration Politics and the Left\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMigration in Capitalism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Left and Migration Politics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrganization of the Book\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Socialism, Marxism and Migration\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Irish Question, Imperialism and Class\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Great Mystifications\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eColonialism, Class and National Questions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSocial Democracy and Its Potential for Transformation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Imperialism and Migrant Labour in the Capitalist World Economy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMigration, Growth and Population Fanaticism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eImperialism and Displacement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMilitarism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlobal Capitalism Dominates Diverse Modes of Production around the World\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMexico–US Migration and Dependency\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMigration, Remittances and Economic Development\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Borders, Militarism and Inequality\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBorders and Militarism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eImmigration Control in the US\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEU Borders: The ‘Long Summer of Migration’\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Making of the European Union: From the ‘Golden Age’ to Neoliberalism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCapitalism Does Not Live Up to Its Idealized Form\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Wages, Organized Labour and Post-Work Utopianism\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMigration, Labour Standards and Unions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorking Conditions in Global Production\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMigration, Wages and Labour Markets in the Global North\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt Is Easier to Imagine the End of Capitalism than Full Automation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6 The Production of Class Antagonisms in Capitalism\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnti-Irish Racism, Colonialism and Development\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRacial Antagonisms in Britain in the Neoliberal Era\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eClass Antagonisms in the US Labour Movement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe State, Media and Class Antagonisms in the UK Lindsey Oil Refinery Strikes\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWho Are the Imperialist Worker Elites?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7 Strikes, Internationalism and Solidarity\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmancipation from Exploitation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRenewal of the World Labour Movement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMigrant Cleaners and Worker-Led Alliances in and around the City of London\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmancipation from Racism and Class Division\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmancipation from Borders\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e8 A Socialist Approach to Migration\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA Socialist Idea of Migration\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow is Socialist Transformation Achieved?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe National Question and Universalist Demands\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTowards Equality of Movement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Economics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Economics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Economics%20%5BKC%5D%22\"\u003eKC\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Polity","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52511171674392,"sku":"9781509535941","price":47.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781509535941.jpg?v=1786587451","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/migration-beyond-capitalism-hardback-9781509535941","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
