J. T. Murphy was one of the most important worker-intellectual figures in the history of labour in early twentieth-century Britain. Using material from the Communist Party of Great Britain's archives and the Russian Centre for the Preservation and Study of Recent History in Moscow, this book not only tells the story of Murphy's political trajectory, but also provides a critical re-examination of the historical and social significance of the early British revolutionary movement in which he played such a prominent role.Less

This chapter summarises the discussions presented in the preceding chapters. It emphasises that this book is primarily concerned with the interaction of social and migration policies in specific social, political, and economic contexts, which affect the welfare, inclusion, and well-being of migrants. Several concepts, such as the labour market and employment; welfare systems and social rights; and migration, social protection, and the challenges of integration, are discussed and reviewed. The chapter concludes with some general reflections on policy and political trajectories and challenges in the field of migration, migration policy, and social protection.Less
