Description
Bordering Britain: Law, Race and Empire by Nadine El-Enany explores the complex history of Britain's relationship with its colonial past. The author argues that Britain's immigration laws are rooted in colonial violence and that irregular immigration is a form of resistance against the legacy of colonialism. By examining the ways in which Britain has sought to distance itself from its colonial history, El-Enany sheds light on the ongoing impact of colonialism on contemporary society.
