Britain's hostile environment | Maya Goodfellow

Whilst we need to recognise the specificity of the current moment, we can't ignore Britain's exclusionary and hostile past, especially with regards to policy and rhetoric. It isn't immigration that it the issue, but anti-immigration politics. Maya Goodfellow is the author of Hostile Environment: How Immigrants Became Scapegoats. A nuanced analysis of the UK’s immigration policy from the 1960s onwards, Hostile Environment links immigration policy and the rhetoric of both Labour and Tory governments to the UK’s colonial past and its imperialist present. Goodfellow shows that distinct forms of racism and dehumanisation directly resulted from immigration policy, and reminds us of the human cost of concessions to anti-immigration politics. https://www.versobooks.com/books/3064...
