Outstanding ... A rich, hopeful, and indispensable guide [that] shows us how the world could be borderless, flourishing, freeLuke de Noronha, co-author,Against Borders: The Case For AbolitionGroundbreaking. This is learning at its most powerful, reframing thinking and activism with the aim of building justiceBridget Anderson, Professor, University of BristolBorders must be abolished. Borders produce and are produced by carceral, racist, classist, sexist, and xenophobic regimes.Border Abolition Nowdemands transformative politics to dismantle these systems of oppression.Taking the key tenets of abolitionism and applying them to the debate around borders, the contributors bring a rich understanding of the history and context of carceral and policing systems. Heralding from different countries, disciplines, and activist struggles, they show how their theories are being realized through feminist decolonial praxis, and how personal experiences of borders and organizing against them inform abolition.Expanding the debate to areas including asylum, detention camps, mobility, and climate change,Border Abolition Nowoffers new tools for anyone working to defend freedom of movement for all.Sara Riva is a Marie Skodowska-Curie Research Fellow at the Spanish National Research Council and the University of Queensland. Simon Campbell is an activist-researcher focusing on border infrastructures, state violence and abolitionist struggles against the border regime. Brian Whitener is an Associate Professor of Spanish at the University at Buffalo and author ofCrisis Cultures: The Rise of Finance in Mexico and Brazil.
