Event Description

Lecture by Alexis Spire

Alexis Spire discusses how French immigration policies bear the marks of a colonial past that has often been disguised or camouflaged by the French government.

His books on this topic include Etrangers à la carte : L’administration de l’immigration en France (1945-1975) (2005) and Accueillir ou reconduire : Enquête sur les guichets de l’immigration (2008).
