"In our globalized world, borders are back with a vengeance. New data shows a massive increase of walls and barriers between countries after 2001. However, at the same time, the flow of people and the growth of trade have continued at impressive rates, and arguments for more open borders remain relevant. In The Border, Martin Schain compares how and why border policy has become increasingly important, politicized, and divisive in both Europe and the United States. Drawing from an intensive analysis of governmental policies interviews with stakeholders, he traces the explosive international growth of border control policies in recent years. In Europe, many countries have worked together under the aegis of the EU to block the entry of asylum-seekers from wars in the Middle East. In the US, Donald Trump pledged to build a wall along the Mexico border, restricted the entry of Syrian asylum-seekers, and tried to ban Muslim immigration. On both sides of the Atlantic, trade barriers have become prominent in the political agendas of major parties. Schain delves into these interlinked phenomena, showing that migration, identity, and trade have been packaged and transformed into hotly contested issues of border governance and control."
