This book offers a unique comparative assessment of the evolution
of immigration detention systems in European Union member states
since the onset of the "refugee crisis." By applying an analytical
framework premised on international human rights law in assessing
domestic detention regimes, the book reveals the extent to which EU
legislation has led to the adoption of laws and practices that may
disregard fundamental rights and standards. While emphasizing
policies and laws adopted in response to the "refugee crisis," the
volume also shows how these policies have evolved-and in many cases
grown more restrictive-even as the "crisis" has begun to recede
from the borders of many European countries. To sharpen awareness
of contrasting developments across the region, the book's country
chapters are organised into geographic sections that reveal how
variations in migration pressures have in some cases resulted in
contrasting detention practices even as the EU directives have
sought to harmonise immigration laws. A critical focus of the book
are the evolving domestic norms related to grounds for detention,
length of detention, non-custodial "alternatives to detention," the
treatment of children, and conditions of detention. With its
systematic and comparative assessment of immigration detention
regimes across the EU, the book will be helpful for both academics
and practitioners who seek a comprehensive guide to the evolution
of one of today's more important human rights dilemmas-states'
efforts to control global migration.
