The Borders of Inequality: Where Wealth and Poverty Collide

Langbeschreibung
In this fascinating book, researcher Ãñigo Moré examines the world's "top twenty most unequal borders”. What he finds is that many of these border situations share similar characteristics. There is always illegal immigration from the poor country to the wealthy one. There is always trafficking in illegal substances. And the unequal neighbours usually regard each other with suspicion or even open hostility.
Íñigo Moré is a scholar and researcher who focuses on border issues. He is the Executive Director of Remesas.org, a research center that studies remittances and maintains an active publishing program, and he has previously done research for the Elcano Royal Institute of Spain. He has reported on Cuba for the Financial Times and has organized conferences in Morocco for The Economist. The Spanish-language edition of this book, La Vida en la Frontera, was ranked sixth by the Spanish newspaper El Mundo on its list of best nonfiction books of 2007.
