Description
What are the interests, institutions, and issues underlying global migration governance?
This course provides analytical instruments, rigorous evidence, and critical thinking to understand the set of laws, policies, regulations, and mechanisms put in place by civil society organisations, governments, and international organisations to regulate migration flows and associated rights.
The course adopts a global outlook, comprehensively connecting different actors, geographies, and types of migration, including entry and exit procedures, visa regulations, border controls, asylum and refugee protection, labour migration policies, irregular migration, and human trafficking.
By the end of the course, students will have developed a sophisticated understanding of the drivers and impacts of migration governance. They will be able to analyse and critically debate the ways in which human movement becomes a contentious political issue, placing such debates in broader political, normative and historical context in which they arise.
