{"product_id":"affective-bordering-9781526196279","title":"Affective bordering: Race, deservingness and the emotional politics of migration control","description":"\u003ci\u003eAffective bordering\u003c\/i\u003e is a powerful exploration of the emotional politics of borders that demonstrates how racial and national boundaries are secured through the political mobilisation and unequal distribution of affect. Examining key events in the wake of the 'refugee crisis' in Germany, it traces how the initial hope and empathy of the long summer of migration of 2015 gave way to national anger, fear and shamelessness in the years following. Challenging the assumption that positive emotions like compassion necessarily work as a counter to negative emotions like anger or fear, the book reveals the racial grammars of deservingness that shape border governance today. Combining queer feminist theories of affect with postcolonial border and migration studies, \u003ci\u003eAffective bordering\u003c\/i\u003e offers a thought-provoking perspective on borders in today's world.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 January 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePage count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Height 234 mm; Width 156 mm; Thickness 10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manchester University Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781526196279\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Billy Holzberg","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50481232216314,"sku":"9781526196279","price":22.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/fallback-book-cover_3bf0138e-a8fa-4e85-97c5-414d52008e68.png?v=1790034154","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/affective-bordering-9781526196279","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
