Contentious Migrant Solidarity: Shrinking Spaces and Civil Society Contestation: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Contentious Migrant Solidarity: Shrinking Spaces and Civil Society Contestation" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

In the context of both the financial crisis and the crisis of European migration politics, the notion of solidarity has gained renewed prominence and - as this book argues - its practice has become increasingly contentious. Intersecting crises have sharpened social and political polarization and have contracted simultaneously the space for migrant and minority rights as well as the rights around political dissent. Building upon social movement and migration studies, this book maps the two sides of contentious solidarity a shrinking civic space and its contestation by civil society. The book thereby unfolds the variety of repressive means (physical, legal, administrative and discursive) employed by governmental and non-governmental bodies against migrant solidarity, but also looks at how civil society organizations react to these restrictions through at times moderation and at times increasing contention. The diagnosis of contentious solidarity is located within two broader trends affecting the relationship between the state and civil society in a neoliberal context in general and since the financial crisis in particular. Bridging studies on social movement studies and civil society organizations, this volume contributes to recent reflections on repression of social movements as well as of a hybridization of civil society organizations. Given its broad scope and the utmost timeliness of the issues it addresses, the volume will be of interest to a broad academic and non-academic audience.

The Criminalization of Political Dissent
Series editor: Professor Judith Bessant, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia
This challenging new book series explores the way governments since 9/11 from across the political spectrum intensified their efforts to criminalize both traditional and new forms of digital political dissent. The series will feature major contributions from the social sciences, law and legal studies, media studies and philosophy to document what happens when governments choose to regard activists campaigning for increased government transparency and accountability, environmental sustainability, social justice, human rights and pro-democracy as engaging in illegal activities.
The book series explores the legal, political and ethical implications when governments engage habitually in mass electronic and digital surveillance, outlaw freedom of movement real and virtual public assembly and prosecute digital activists. The books in this series are a must read for anyone interested in the future of democracy.

In the context of both the financial crisis and the crisis of European migration politics, the notion of solidarity has gained renewed prominence (della Porta, 2018; Lahusen and Grasso, 2018; Agustn and Jrgensen, 2019; Bauder and Juffs, 2020; Malamidis, 2020). Furthermore, as we argue in this book, its practice has become increasingly contentious. The multiple crises that, since the financial breakdown in 2008, have hit the globe have challenged civil society organizations in several ways. Not by chance, the diagnosis of shrinking or closing spaces has spread to indicate the increasing challenges organizations and activists engaged in solidarity meet (van der Borgh and Terwindt, 2012; Anheier, Lang and Toepler, 2018; Swiney, 2019).
Parts of this dynamic date back even longer and are related with the proliferation of anti-terror regulations introduced in the aftermath of the attacks on September 11, 2011 (Swiney, 2019). Since 2008, the socioeconomic crises have brought about further retrenchment of the welfare state and cuts in public funding and donations for civil society organizations. In addition, neoliberal transformations of society, which date from long before the financial crisis, over time, have resulted in an increasing dissatisfaction among citizens with (multiple) governments failure to keep up to the promises of economic growth and a gradual move toward post-democratic modes of governance (Crouch, 2004). A veritable crisis of the legitimacy of liberal democracy translated into an increasing polarization of society, among others, around the integrationdemarcation (Hutter, 2014; Hutter, Grande and Kriesi, 2016) or communitarian-cosmopolitan cleavage (Wilde
