Abstract

"Global migration is not at an all-time high." "Climate change will not lead to mass migration." "Immigration mainly benefits the wealthy, not workers." "Border restrictions have paradoxically produced more migration." - These statements might sound counter-intuitive or just outright wrong - but the facts behind the headlines reveal a completely different story to the ones we're told about migration. In this ground-breaking and revelatory book, based on more than three decades of research, leading expert Professor Hein de Haas explodes myths espoused by both left and right that politicians, interest groups and media regularly spread about migration.Comparing trends and perspectives from Western 'destination countries' (UK, US and Europe) as well as 'origin countries' in Asia, Africa and Latin America, de Haas equips readers with essential knowledge on migration based on the best evidence and data, showing migration not as a problem to be solved, nor as a solution to a problem, but as it really is.Above all, How Migration Really Works offers a new vision of migration based on facts rather than fears, and a paradigm-altering understanding of this perennially important subject.

Abstract

Al jaren zorgt het debat over migratie voor verdeeldheid binnen de wereldpolitiek en inmiddels lijkt de kloof groter dan ooit. De media tonen bijna wekelijks beelden van gevaarlijke overtochten op de Middellandse Zee en politici beloven de toestroom van migranten en asielzoekers in te perken. Anderen beweren dat we immigranten juist hard nodig hebben om groei en innovatie te stimuleren. Maar wat zijn de feiten achter de krantenkoppen, de beweringen van politici en de beslissingen die zij nemen? Op basis van 30 jaar onderzoek maakt hoogleraar Sociologie Hein de Haas korte metten met 22 hardnekkige linkse én rechtse migratiemythen, voorziet hij de lezer van essentiële kennis en confronteert ons met ontnuchterende lessen over migratie. Hoe migratie echt werkt is een inspirerend, onthullend en onmisbaar boek dat onze kijk op de wereld compleet zal veranderen.

Abstract

The media and prevailing policy discourses convey an increasingly apocalyptic image of the massive outflows of desperate Africans fleeing poverty and war at home. This study tries to achieve a more empirically and quantitatively founded understanding of the nature, scale and recent evolution of irregular West African migration to Maghreb and Europe. Furthermore, the publication evaluates how policies to manage trans-Saharan and trans-Mediterranean migration have affected current migration patterns.

Abstract

Samenlevingen analyseert het sociale leven in termen van wederzijdse afhankelijkheden en brengt studenten hiermee een sociologische manier van denken bij. Het boek introduceert eerst de verschillende basisafhankelijkheden, namelijk op economisch, affectief, cognitief en politiek vlak. Vervolgens gaat het boek in op sociale ongelijkheid als universeel verschijnsel van het menselijk samenleven. Tot slot worden belangrijke sociale fenomenen, zoals migratie, steden, criminaliteit en gender besproken. Verschillende herkenbare casussen en praktijkvoorbeelden illustreren de theorie. Deze vernieuwde, negende editie van Samenlevingen is volledig geüpdatet op basis van de meest recente sociologische inzichten en actuele vraagstukken. Er zijn nieuwe casussen toegevoegd, onder andere over de klimaatrechtzaak van Urgenda en over de gevolgen van de coronapandemie. Ook zijn alle cijfers en statistische gegevens in het boek geactualiseerd.
