Focuses on how bureaucrats exert multiple forms of control over migrants, and specifically, how they restrict their access to key bureaucratic information. Drawing on a corpus of data gathered in a multilingual immigration office in Spain, this book is also suitable for students in the fields of sociolinguistics, and language and immigration.
