Migration Matters

This book tells an interesting story-of development as seen from the lens of mobility. The grand dynamics of the accumulation of capital have shaped global inequality-this needs to be corrected. Central to this effort will be freer economic migration. Transnational economic migration will be the next frontier of globalization. There is, thus, an urgent need to move to a rule-based, binding set of principles that would require states to willingly cede some degree of their sovereignty on matters of economic migration to a multilateral process.
