Description: Seeking Asylum : Human Smuggling and Bureaucracy at the Border, Paperback by Mountz, Alison, ISBN 0816665389, ISBN-13 9780816665389, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Mountz (geography, Syracuse U.) develops long-tunnel analogy for how governments are able to manipulate space in order to keep unwanted immigrants out. It posits that governments can just keep adding bureaucratic distance to arrival, even if the people are only on the other side of a barbed-wire fence. Citing examples from Canada, Australia, and the US, she discusses human smuggling and refugee protection, seeing borders like a state, ethnography of the state, crisis and the making of the bogus refugee, stateless by geographical design, in the shadows of the state, and what kind of state we are in.
