The research of this group combines newly developing foci on geopolitics and new dimensions of identity and mobility with long-standing departmental interests in migration and geographies of difference. Broad research areas include:

• shaping the UK government’s managed migration strategy
• estimating levels of illegal migration
• exploring geographical dimensions to the identities of children, the elderly, and Black, transnational and diasporic populations
• analysing connections between national security and disease management
• deconstructing nationalist politics in Africa and North America
