How does migration feature in states' diplomatic agendas across the
Middle East? Migration diplomacy provides the first systematic
examination of the foreign policy importance of migrants, refugees
and diasporas in the Global South. Tsourapas examines how
emigration-related processes become embedded in governmental
practices of establishing and maintaining power; how states engage
with migrant and diasporic communities residing in the West; how
oil-rich Arab monarchies have extended their support for a number
of sending states' ruling regimes via cooperation on labour
migration; and, finally, how labour and forced migrants may serve
as instruments of political leverage. Drawing on multi-sited
fieldwork and employing a range of case-studies across the Middle
East and North Africa, Tsourapas identifies how the management of
cross-border mobility in the Middle East is not primarily dictated
by legal, moral, or human rights considerations but driven by state
actors' key concern - political power. -- .
