Us and Them? explores the distinction between migrant and citizen through using the concept of 'the community of value'. The community of value is comprised of Good Citizens and is defined from outside by the Non-Citizen and from the inside by the Failed Citizen, that is figures like the benefit scrounger, the criminal, the teenage mother etc. While Failed Citizens and Non-Citizens are often strongly differentiated, the book argues that it is analytically and politically productive to consider them together. Judgments about who counts as skilled, what is a good marriage, who is suitable for citizenship, and what sort of enforcement is acceptable against 'illegals', affect citizens as well as migrants. Rather than simple competitors for the privileges of membership, citizens and migrants define each other through sets of relations that shift and are not straightforward binaries. The first two chapters on vagrancy and on Empire historicise migration management by linking it to attempts to control the mobility of the poor. The following three chapters map and interrogate the concept of the 'national labour market' and UK immigration and citizenship policies examining how they work within public debate to produce 'us and them'. Chapters 6 and 7 go on to discuss the challenges posed by enforcement and deportation, and the attempt to make this compatible with liberalism through anti-trafficking policies. It ends with a case study of domestic labour as exemplifying the ways in which all the issues outlined above come together in the lives of migrants and their employers.

Hunger is all Seren knows, but an invite to a glorious castle changes everything for her, or so she thinks. In one night, she leaves her warm bed at the orphanage, and in return, a cold floor of a dungeon awaits her. To make matters worse, she isn't a guest but a birthday gift, and a cruel princess receives her as such. Her only comfort is Evan, a twelve-year-old prince who is brave, well, most of the time. He breaks his oath to his father by telling his newfound friend a secret: an evil red-eyed raven is kidnapping children of royal blood, heirs, and his brother is one of them. He tells her Orrin's golden armor can save them, but no one knows where it is since Orrin hid it, centuries ago. When Seren stumbles upon a mysterious book leading to the whereabouts of the armor, she puts her new life of servitude on hold and sets out to find it. With the help of Evan, and Artemis —a rude, know-it-all prodigy—the unlikely trio sneaks out of the castle and embark on a journey to a bizarre world within worlds. They only have days to find it before a blood moon, and a rising evil consumes the land. If they follow the instructions in the book on how to retrieve the armor without unleashing more evil, they may be able to save the children after all, their kingdoms, and even themselves. But first, they'll need a little light to do it....

Reminiscent of a Grimm brother's fairy tale, this fantastic adventure of otherworldly proportions rekindles the eternal magic of fairy tales: A mysterious, otherworldly people is massacred by a greedy king; wrongdoers become unexpected heroes; a precious infant is kidnapped, igniting a holy war waged by the otherwise peaceful nation of the circus people. BJ Anderson's folksy, personable narrative invites the reader to re-experience that old fashioned campfire-story feel, embodying a myth-element of unjust oppression/triumphant reward.
