Description:
Empirically examining the entire development of the EU's policy towards asylum-seekers and refugees, from its origins in 1993, this book analyses the extent and the modalities of the securitization of asylum-seekers and refugees in the EU.
Review Quotes:
"Based on a theoretical framework that refreshes security studies and the literature on securitization, the authors greatly contribute to the scholarly debates about refugees, while providing interesting insights for practitioners and policy-makers."
