Mobility and Migration Choices: Thresholds to Crossing Borders

Gender-Geographien: Geschlecht und Raum als soziale Konstruktionen
Immigration Policies, State Discourses on Foreigners, and the Politics of Identity in Switzerland
The role of state discourses in the construction of 'otherness' and in the production of inequality has become a major issue during a time of increasing changes in migration flows, of an increased presence of nationalist parties, and of increasingly restrictive immigration policies in Europe.

La división de la región por la frontera internacional ha pr…
