Critical Perspectives on Migration Law and Governance

Abstract

This panel sheds critical perspectives on seminal issues at the intersection of migration law and governance. Papers critique the policy linkage between migration and development from an equality perspective; explore how collective action reveals the tension between normative aspirations and the actual impact of EU law in migration; ascertain the discrimination potential of AI-based tools deployed in migration; and, deconstruct the EU’s ‘refugee crisis’ narrative, revealing it to be a crisis of principles. Interdisciplinary research in this panel draws from law, public policy, political sociology, and social movement studies.
