This book delves into how everyday bordering—rules and practices used by states for migration governance—impacts migrants’ access to social rights and shapes their post-migration life. It focuses on the interactions between institutional bodies, agents, and migrants of various profiles, highlighting how these dynamics condition migrants’ experiences and access to rights. This book offers significant insights into the complex relationship between access to social and fundamental rights and bordering practices, examined at various levels and from complementary perspectives. This book will be of special interest to scholars and students of migration studies and welfare studies, as well as practitioners working in the field of migration.
