Industry Reviews
"Stealing Time is an important and readable collection of well written chapters, well put together. Its committed combination of critical research and exemplifying activism works." (Scott Poynting, State Crime Journal, Vol. 12 (1), 2023)

"This interdisciplinary volume brings together accounts of how states use time as a weapon in different ways in their efforts to fight irregular migration. ... This timely volume elucidates a number of aspects linking time management, control of people through detention practices and administrative procedures within which people on the move become trapped with systemic harm." (Yasha Maccanico, statewatch.org, November 18, 2021)
