I’ve joined Liverpool University Press as series editor 📑 Do reach out for inquiries if you are doing critical academic work on migration & identities and searching for a committed academic book publisher, which supports #openaccess and #interdisciplinarity ⬇️

Well done, Deniz! Don't miss his interview with Léopold Lambert, editor-in-chief of the excellent magazine The Funambulist, which focuses on critical interdisciplinary reflections on how border regimes intersect bodies beyond territorial borders.
