Noncitizen Power: Agency and the Politics of Migration

In Noncitizen Power Tendayi Bloom applies her novel politics of 'noncitizenism' - those fighting for political recognition either from their state or from the international system as a whole - to real-world policy. Through an analysis of the UN Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (adopted in December 2018) Bloom interrogates the power of migrants and civil society in determining the outcome of, and engaging with, global migration governance. As such, this book provides an important contribution to contemporary debates about solidarity, participation, legitimacy and justice in the international system. Based on fieldwork and interviews carried out at the United Nations, as well as her own participation throughout the process toward the global compact for migration, Bloom investigates the most recent developments in global migration governance and the role noncitizens have in shaping it.
