Arvustused
The Other People is a collection of 12 chapters by authors from a rather wide range of disciplines. The book promises to provoke scholars and citizens to think more broadly about human rights and social justice and how to engage others around those issues . The Other People succeeds in including multiple interesting perspectives on migration, and as such will prove rewarding for readers.
