The second edition of The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe provides a rigorous, provocative, and critical examination of what is exceptional about the European politics of migration and the study of it.
Crucially, this book adopts a pan-European perspective to better explain the regional shades of European migration politics, inclusive of tendencies in all geographical parts of Europe. The volume accounts for recent developments that affect human mobility in Europe, including the significant number of asylum seekers from non-EU and non-European countries in 2014–2016, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Brexit, and the Russian war on Ukraine. Thematically organized, this book provides analytically fruitful comparisons across various geographical entities within Europe. The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Migration in Europe will be essential reading and an authoritative reference for scholars, students, researchers, and practitioners involved in, and actively concerned about, research and policy on migration, and European and EU Politics.
"This excellent collection offers an insightful and authoritative overview of the key issues in the politics of migration in Europe—from notions of membership and belonging to migration governance; from labour migration to forced displacement; from border control to pan-European cooperation. A particular strength is its coverage of dynamics and interconnections across all 51 European countries, teasing out some of the distinctive aspects of political discourse and governance across this large and diverse group of countries. It is a must-read for all scholars of migration policy and politics."
Christina Boswell, Professor of Politics, University of Edinburgh, UK"This handbook is an essential source for everyone interested in understanding the highly dynamic nature of European policymaking on migration."
Martin Geiger, Associate Professor of Politics of Migration and Mobility, Carleton University, Canada
