We Are All Migrants

"Now more than ever, questions of citizenship, migration, and political action dominate public debate. In this powerful and polemical book, Gregory Feldman argues that We Are All Migrants. By challenging the division between those considered "citizens" and "migrants," Feldman shows that both subjects confront disempowerment, uncertainty, and atomization inseparable from the rise of mass society, the isolation of the laboring individual, and the global proliferation of rationalized practices of security and production. Yet, this very atomization -- the ubiquitous condition of migrant-hood -- pushes the individual to ask an existential and profoundly political question: "Do I matter in this world?" Feldman ultimately argues that to overcome the condition of migrant-hood, people must be empowered to establish and question their own sovereign spaces from their particular standpoints."--Back cover.
