Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to investigate the role of the EU in establishing a framework for multilateral migration control, and to ask to what extent the Union has acted in a ‘responsible’ manner in the context of the global migration regime — a regime that has become a hugely important building block of today’s world politics. As an empirical case study, the chapter looks at recent attempts at the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) to set up mechanisms of multinational migration control through inter-regional dialogue. The chapter thus also sheds some light on how inter-regional dialogues are assuming an increasingly important role globally, and on what the potential implications of this development might be.
