This book provides much food for thought and should be widely welcomed by migration researchers across the social sciences." - Allan Findlay, University of St Andrews, UK Promotional Springer Book Archives Long Description Migratory pressure is growing and with it the challenge to address the integration of migrants into the social fabric of the EU in a coherent and comprehensive manner. Migrants are subject to different forms and degrees of marginalization in the inclusion-exclusion continuum, which in turn leads to exposure to different forms and degrees of risk and vulnerability. The transcultural subject finds himself/herself excluded from the host society. In this respect migrants are transformed from being legal subjects as they turn into legal abjects. The process of abjectification is not linear, and differs according to ones differential inclusion and/or exclusion in the host country. Gabriella Lazaridis aims to decipher the complex web of structural, institutional and cultural contradictions which shape the inclusion-exclusion dialectic and the multifaceted grid within which the us becomes the other and the other becomes the us within the transformation of the European space into a transnational one in the wider globalization process.
