Abstract
Immigration and Politics in the New Europe: Reinventing Borders. By Gallya Lahav. New York: Cambridge University Press, 2004. 334p. $75.00 cloth, $27.99 paper.In this book, Gallya Lahav offers a nuanced account of the nascent and dynamic Europeanization of migration policy. Moving beyond scholarship that narrowly casts migration as a contest between supranational and domestic constraints, Lahav depicts the prospects for collective European migration policymaking as a product of “emergent consensual attitudes on restrictive policies, among elites and mass publics alike” (p. 9). By “bringing attitudes back in,” her treatment offers a welcome complement to intergovernmentalist and neofunctionalist accounts of migration policy and reminds readers that as policymakers grapple with the domestic and international challenges of contemporary immigration, cooperation may be of a negative or restrictive sort.
