"This is a compelling, insightful contribution to migration literature, which uses theory and research in a considered way to explore the complex interactions between separated girls and social workers. With a global appeal, it will be of value to policy makers, researchers, and practitioners across disciplines. It challenges us to consider how social work can exclude and be complicit in racist migration policies, while also highlighting the hopeful possibilities when working with refugee populations."
