Embodying Borders

A Migrant's Right to Health, Universal Rights and Local Policies

262 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Based on extensive field research, the essays in this volume illuminate the experiences of migrants from their own point of view, providing a critical understanding of the complex social reality in which each experience is grounded. Access to medical care for migrants is a fundamental right which is often ignored. The book provides a critical understanding of the social reality in which social inequalities are grounded and offers the opportunity to show that right to health does not correspond uniquely with access to healthcare.
