European governments have re-discovered labor migration, but are
eager to be perceived as controlling unsolicited forms of
migration, especially through asylum and family reunion. The
emerging paradigm of managed migration combines the construction of
more permissive channels for desirable and actively recruited labor
migrants with ever more restrictive approaches towards asylum
seekers. Non-state actors, especially employer organizations, trade
unions, and humanitarian non-governmental organizations, attempt to
shape regulatory measures, but their success varies depending on
organizational characteristics. Labor market interest associations'
lobbying strategies regarding quantities and skill profile of labor
migrants will be influenced by the respective system of political
economy they are embedded in. Trade unions are generally supportive
of well-managed labor recruitment strategies. But migration
policy-making also proceeds at the European Union (EU) level. While
national actors seek to upload their national model as a blueprint
for future EU policy to avoid costly adaptation, top-down
Europeanization is re-casting national regulation in important
ways, notwithstanding highly divergent national regulatory
philosophies.
Based on field work in and analysis of primary documents from six
European countries (France, Italy, United Kingdom, Ireland,
Germany, and Poland), The Political Economy of Managed Migration
makes an important contribution to the study of a rapidly
Europeanized policy domain. Combining insights from the literature
on comparative political economy, Europeanization, and migration
studies, the book makes important contributions to all three, while
demonstrating how migration policy can be fruitfully studied by
employing tools from mainstream political science, rather than
treating it as a distinct subfield.
