in the Assistance to Voluntary Return and Reintegration program administered by the International Migration Organization (IOM), which itself offers layers of irony and tragedy. In this program, migrants sign up voluntarily to be deported back to their country of origin, even as their capacity for choice and volition is deeply compromised. Morocco, for its part, also participates “voluntarily.” Morocco cooperates with the IOM, and the program is not imposed on the country per se, yet the monarchy receives aid and assistance to encourage its participation. Immigration Nation is an excellent contribution to recent scholarship. It joins other superb analyses of migration politics in Morocco, such as Andersson’s Illegality, Inc. (2014), Norman’s Reluctant Reception (2020), and Iskander’s Creative State (2010). Such works similarly have relevance well beyond the Moroccan context. For its part, Gazzotti’s book provides a rich trove of insights and ongoing questions that will occupy scholars for quite some time.
