A fundamental resource for anyone interested in the long-term
ramifications of the European migration crisis, this book
objectively assesses how Europe's future course will be impacted by
the key security, political, and economic trends and events
stemming from the migration crisis. The November 13, 2015 Paris
terrorist attacks marked the definitive moment when the migration
crisis became associated with terrorism, stoking an increasingly
heated debate over the perceived dangers of migration, Islam, and
extremist politics in Europe. The sudden emergence of migration as
the mobilizing factor for European security, political discourse,
and socio-economic realities has profoundly affected Europe's
contrasting perceptions of its own identity and values,
precipitating an increasingly global response to tackling migration
challenges in Europe and worldwide. Migration, Terrorism, and the
Future of a Divided Europe: A Continent Transformed chronicles the
turbulent events of the 2015-2016 migration crisis, creating a
context in which future political, economic, social, and security
trends in Europe can be understood. The study also examines in
detail the deep history of the ideological origins and histories of
treaties and policies that have defined the European Union and its
guidance of the crisis. Readers will gain insight into the origins,
factual realities, and projected ramifications for the continent's
future security, politics, and socio-economic identity; the impact
of media coverage on public perception; the differing policies and
rhetoric of rival right- and left-wing parties in Europe; and the
new security threats arising from a widened terrorist threat matrix
that will comprise new targets, methods, and logistics. Finally,
the book outlines the larger policy actions and trends expected, on
the global level, towards handling future migration crises, and
explains how this will have an impact on Europe. This important new
work is the cumulative result of author Chris Deliso's extensive
academic background in European history and thought; his
on-the-ground presence in the target region before, during, and
after the crisis; and his interviews with security officials,
diplomatic figures, and practitioners directly involved with
shaping the policies that were visible during the crisis. Offering
a broad historical context, the text portrays the current crisis
within the context of a much longer institutional and ideological
divide that has existed in Europe and shaped policies for almost a
century. Presents a contextualized, multidisciplinary study of the
migrant crisis that covers everything from organized crime and
terrorism to media ethics, economic aspects, and the history of
ideas Discusses U.S. security and economic interests in Europe, how
these interests will be impacted by the crisis, and measures the
United States is likely to take to confront challenges Provides
insights from an author and journalist who has 15 years of regional
experience, has an academic background in European history, and has
interviewed European decision makers and practitioners involved
with handling the crisis
