This book investigates how migration has been transformed into a
security threat in Europe. It argues that this process has taken
place through a self-fulfilling spiralling process, which involves
different actors and their specific narratives, practices and
policies. The book examines how situations stemming from the
so-called ‘migration crisis’ in the European Union (EU) have
been dealt with by governments and non-governmental organisations.
It also considers how actors treating migration as an ordinary
phenomenon rather than a threat and sharing inclusive narratives
can create the conditions for decelerating and eventually stopping
securitisation processes. Some chapters examine the spiralling of
the securitisation of migration in depth, by analysing increases in
securitisation, as well as cases characterised by resistance.
Others focus on examining the consequences of socially constructing
migration as a crisis for the EU’s relations with third
countries. In sum, this book shows that there is a wide range of
motives for which states and societies would benefit from a change
in migration politics and move from the current management of a
‘crisis’ to a more positive governance of human mobility. It
will be of interest to researchers and advanced students of
sociology, politics, international relations, social and cultural
anthropology, human geography, and social work. This book was
originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Ethnic
and Migration Studies.
