The Making of Migration addresses the rapid phenomenon that has become one of the most contentious issues in contemporary life: how are migrants governed as individual subjects and as part of groups? What are the modes of control, identification and partitions that migrants are subjected to? Bringing together an ethnographically grounded analysis of migration, and a critical theoretical engagement with the security and humanitarian modes of governing migrants, the book pushes us to rethink notions that are central in current political theory such as "multiplicity" and subjectivity. This is an innovative and sophisticated study; deploying migration as an analytical angle for complicating and reconceptualising the emergence of collective subjects, mechanisms of individualisation, and political invisibility/visibility. A must-read for students of Migration Studies, Political Geography, Political Theory, International Relations, and Sociology.

This book explores the transformation of the Tunisian space of mobility after the Arab Uprisings, looking at the country’s emerging profile as a migratory “destination” and focusing on refugees from Syria, Libya, and Sub-Saharan countries; Tunisian migrants in Europe who return home; and young undocumented European migrants living in Tunis. This work engages with and contributes to the broader conversation on the migrations-crisis nexus, by retracing the geographies of mobility which are reshaping the Mediterranean region.

Martina Tazzioli is Research Associate at Queen Mary, University of London, UK, and Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Aix-Marseille, France.

The book traces a series of reflections on this spatial upheaval. It takes into account the geography of the Tunisian revolution bringing into focus the ‘peripheral’ spaces from where it started - the poor regions of Tunisia’s inland and the banlieues of the city of Tunis – and the ‘marginal spaces’ where it landed. The book also looks at the ‘Collective of Tunisians from Lampedusa in Paris,’ a group migrants who occupied many buildings in Paris in the Spring of 2011, and their nominalist subversion breaking into the spatiality of the Earth, shattering centuries of history, political thought about space, belonging and the spatial inscription of the body. It deals with the group of mothers and families of Tunisian missing migrants that for two years have challenged the migratory policies of the European Union, demanding the institutions to be accountable for the lives of their sons, establishing again, from one shore to the other, the Sea as a space of crossing, the concreteness of lives’ plots. Two years after the outbreak of the Tunisian revolution, the book addresses the ongoing ‘migration crisis,’ looking at the strategies of resistance asylum seekers put in place at the Choucha refugee camp at the Tunisia-Libya border. In order to investigate the political and spatial upheaval Tunisian migrants produced in the European space, the book reflects on the ‘on/off circuits of Schengen’ and on the way in which European policies reacted to the conflict that migrants’ border crossing opened in the Schengen area. Included in the book is a counter-map of the Mediterranean from the vantage point of the Tunisian revolution. Spaces in migration: Postcards of a Revolution focuses its investigation on the physical spaces, the concrete spatial upheavals, and on mobilities across space of the Tunisian revolution.
