Abstract

Migration cannot be fully controlled. And yet, governments—with some success—continue to introduce new measures to reassert control, forcing migrants to find new ways to move, stay and work. To examine the dynamics that shape the ‘implementation gap’ has been a key concern of the research that informs this book.

Notes

  1. 1.

    These approaches have their own terminology according to geographical location and discipline. In this book, we use law and society, socio-legal studies and sociology/anthropology of law interchangeably.

  2. 2.

    For a list of changes, cf. dejure.org/.

  3. 3.

    For a list of changes, cf. http://www.immigrazione.biz/normative.php.

  4. 4.

    The 28 EU Member States minus the UK and Ireland, who opted out of the Schengen Agreement and the not-yet-full-members Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia and Cyprus, plus Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein.

  5. 5.

    The 2011 Qualification Directive (recast), the 2013 Asylum Procedures Directive (recast), the 2013 Reception Conditions Directive (recast) and the 2011 Temporary Protection Directive (EASO 2016).

  6. 6.

    The EU is currently negotiating the new proposal for a Common European Asylum System, which aims to enhance harmonisation of asylum policies by introducing binding regulations for Member States in the following fields: qualification for protection, asylum procedures, resettlement and reception conditions; moreover, an updated version of the Eurodac and Dublin IV Regulation, and expanded mandate of the EASO, which will take on either a coordinating or monitoring function.

  7. 7.

    The proposal of the European Parliament and European Council for the Dublin IV Regulation suggests to erase this chain-rule and to ‘introduce a rule that once a Member State has examined the application as Member State responsible, it remains responsible also for examining future representations and applications of the given applicant’ (European Commission 2016a, 15). This is one of the measures that are introduced with the aim to prevent so-called secondary movements.
