Professor Martina Tazzioli examines the rise of anti-immigration sentiment in Europe, particularly the idea that the rights of migrants come at the expense of the citizens in a sort of zero sum game. This perception is rooted in economic scarcity and austerity politics, which fuel resentment rather than addressing systemic inequalities affecting both migrants and citizens. Advocating for „border abolitionism,“ the author suggests dismantling not just physical borders but the broader mechanisms of exclusion and economic subordination that sustain them, ultimately calling for a new political imagination that ensures universal rights and mobility.
