Over the past two years, large-scale migratory movements to Europe
have gained worldwide attention, and have prompted ever-greater
desires to govern and control them. At the same time, we have seen
the emergence of political struggles for rights to movement and
demands for greater social justice, in both the global 'north' and
'south'. Throughout the world, political mobilizations by refugees,
irregularized migrants and solidarity activists have emerged,
demanding and enacting the right to move and to stay, struggling
for citizenship and human rights, and protesting the violence and
deadliness of contemporary border regimes. This collection brings
together articles that explore political mobilizations in several
countries and (border) regions, including Brazil, Mexico, the
United States, Austria, Germany, Greece, Turkey and 'the
Mediterranean'. Many of these political mobilizations can be
understood as transnational responses to processes of
regionalization and the intensification of restrictive border
regimes across the globe, and as illustrative of what might be
referred to as a 'new era of protest'.

The journal "movements" collects academic, activist and artistic
output that deals with migration and border regimes. It fosters
exchange between academic discourse and the movements of migration,
and thus allows for political debate about our societies in motion.
This issue discusses the current developments of the Turkish
migration and border regime in relation to EUropean migration
policies. The contributions analyze the so called EU-Turkey Deal
and its implications on politics and society in Turkey and its
neighborhood as well as the living conditions of asylum seekers and
migrants in Turkey. "movements" is published in print with
transcript and online (open access) at www.movements-journal.org.
