From the very beginning of Pugh's book, the reader will discover the author's empathy with the people who are subjected to “the invisibility bargain”, namely migrants and refugees who—to access protection and rights—have to meet the host society's dual expectation of both contributing to the economy and remaining invisible in social and political life. The close examination of the integration and protection struggles that Columbian refugees and migrants face in Ecuador and that stands at the center of this book can help us get closer to the real experiences of human mobility and hereby humanize migration studies. A product of a decade of work, Jeffrey Pugh's The Invisibility Bargain, analyzes how relationships between nationals and migrants are negotiated and explores the expectations of social and political invisibility that migrants and refugees must accomplish to access protection and rights in the destination country.

书评：隐形交易：治理网络和移民人类安全作者：Pugh, Jeffrey D

从 Pugh 的书的一开始，读者就会发现作者对那些遭受“隐形交易”的人的同情，即移民和难民，他们在获得保护和权利时必须满足东道国社会对两者的双重期望为经济做出贡献并在社会和政治生活中保持隐形。对哥伦比亚难民和移民在厄瓜多尔面临的融合和保护斗争的仔细研究是本书的中心，可以帮助我们更接近人类流动的真实经历，从而使移民研究人性化。Jeffrey Pugh 的The Invisibility Bargain是十年工作的产物，分析了国民和移民之间的关系是如何谈判的，并探讨了移民和难民在目的地国家获得保护和权利必须实现的社会和政治隐形期望。
