Résumé

The Geopo­li­ti­ci­sa­tion of Migra­tion Poli­cies in and around Europe
Follo­wing increa­sing diffi­cul­ties by Euro­pean poli­ties to cope with unplanned migrant arri­vals, since two decades at least the “external », preemp­tive dimen­sion of migra­tion poli­cies has been gaining stra­tegic salience. While in an early phase, this shift was mainly the result of targeted “exter­na­li­sa­tion” initia­tives taken by Euro­pean “desti­na­tion states”, in the last years (with 2015 as a turning point) “sending” and “transit states” neigh­bou­ring the EU have been deploying growing geopo­li­tical agency by proac­ti­vely “weapo­ni­sing” migrants and refu­gees. The seminar will analyse this shift within a long-term trend towards “geopo­li­ti­ci­sa­tion” of migra­tion policies.
