ABSTRACT
Migration management is a shift from traditional, mostly unilateral and purely state-driven forms of migration ‘government’, as well as more multilateral-intergovernmental modes of migration ‘governance’ to more technocratic, tool-based approaches to migration. These approaches are founded on the principle that international migration should be allowed and promoted as long as it is regulated as an orderly, lawful, humane, safe and for all stakeholders (receiving and sending countries plus migrants) ‘beneficial’ process. In recent years, intergovernmental organizations, including the International Organization for Migration(IOM) have become key players in the elaboration and provision of national, regional and global instruments to regulate cross-border movements of people. My presentation will focus on the role of these organizations in managing migration in the Eastern and Southeastern ‘Neighborhood’ of the European Union.
