Overview
With over 240 million migrants in the world, including over 65 million forced migrants and refuggees, states have turned to draconian measures to stem the flow of irregular migration, including the criminalization of migration itself. Canada, perceived as a nation of immigrants and touted as one of the most generous countries in the world today for its reception of refugees, has not been immune from these practices. This book examines the \"crimmigration\" -- the criminalization of migration -- from national and comparative perspectives, drawing attention to the increasing use of criminal law measures, public policies, and practices that stigmatize or diminish the rights of forced migrants and regugees within a dominant public discourse that not only steoreotypes and criminalizes but marginalized forced migrants. -- Provided by publisher.
