Este trabajo propone una distinción analítica entre derecho y política migratoria dentro del contexto de la migración México- Estados Unidos y analiza la visión dominante de las políticas migratorias que enfatizan la seguridad y la soberanía. Sobre esta base, se examina el derecho que enmarca las políticas migratorias de dos entidades federativas en México: Guanajuato y Sonora. Las diferencias entre éstas dependen de la realidad social de las migraciones transcurridas en cada territorio estatal, pero además obedecen a rupturas en los enfoques jurídico-políticos bajo los que se diseñan las estrategias migratorias en México; de estas entidades, una por lo menos, lanza un reto a la manera tradicional de atender la migración internacional. El trabajo concluye con planteamientos que intentan marcar sendas para continuar los estudios de política y derecho migratorio.Abstract: This work proposes an analytical distinction between law and migration policy in the context of Mexico-USA and analyses the prevailing approach about migration policies that emphasize the security and sovereignty. On this basis, we examine the law that frames the migration policies of two states in Mexico: Guanajuato and Sonora. The differences between them, depends on the social reality of migrations that occur in each state territory, but also them are due to breaks in the legal and political approaches that are designed under the migration policies in Mexico and at least one of them launches a challenge to the traditional way of understanding international migration. The paper closes with conclusions that try to outline ways to further research and studies about migration law and migration policy.Résumé : Cet article propose une distinction analytique entre le droit et la politique migratoire dans le contexte de la migration du Mexique vers les États-Unis et analyse l’approche dominante des politiques migratoires qui mettent l’accent sur la sécurité et la souveraineté. Sur cette base, nous examinons la normativité qui encadre les politiques migratoires de deux états mexicains : Guanajuato et Sonora. La différence entre les deux situations dépend de la réalité sociale des migrations qui se produisent dans chacun de ces états mais découle aussi de ruptures dans les approches juridiques et politiques conçues dans le cadre des politiques migratoires au Mexique. Un de ces états lance d’ailleurs un défi à la façon traditionnelle d’aborder les migrations internationales. Le document se termine par des conclusions qui tentent d’esquisser des pistes pour la poursuite des études sur le droit et les politiques migratoires.

Migration issues are today one of most discussed and acute. Attention towards migration processes increases with its growing magnitude and consequences, having positive and negative character. International migration has acquired greater prominence in border regions of Russia where it become related to inter-ethnic relations. The article presents the results of a multi-year sociological survey (2016-2020, n = 6250), aimed at studying the migration situation and the social integration of representatives of different ethnic groups living in the Altai region. Especially, attitudes of population towards migration, migrants and migration policy, ethnic relations, tendencies and different aspects of changes in these attitudes are in the focus of the analysis.


This volume highlights the challenges of contemporary policymaking and scholarship on high-skilled migration. Both areas often focus rather narrowly on migration policy without considering systematically and rigorously other economic, social, and political drivers of migration. These structural drivers are often equally or sometimes even more important than migration policies per se. To be successful in recruiting on the global skill market, countries have to implement coherent whole-of-government immigration policy packages which are to be embedded in a country’s broader economic, social, and political structures and the broader context of international migration processes and dynamics. Societies and economies that are able to create a welcoming environment for people, attractive professional conditions for workers, and a business climate for employers are likely to succeed in attracting and recruiting skilled workers that are in demand. The chapter concludes with some proposals aimed at improving the efficiency of the global skill market.

In this paper, we provide a critical overview of the current migration policies of the EU as framed by the recent amendments of the EU migration policies since 2015. We highlight that the construction of the migration policy is a constitutive element of the spatial process of reorganization of territorial policies through the combination and diffusion of state, regional and global. We show that the perception of permanent and static migration pressure, and countries’ specialization in migration are the basis for diffusion of asylum and migration policies to a number of different countries imposing similar migration systems and establishing a global governance of migration regime. The paper highlights a geographic and political change in migration and border management, through the patterns of EU Member States cooperation, and in particular their reluctance to establish a common asylum system based on solidarity and the focus on substituting the lack of a common asylum system by bilateral externalization agreements the main objective of which is the management of migration and border control rather than guaranteeing asylum and refugee policies.

The social integration of refugees and other immigrants depends on the development of their chances of participating in society and on making them more proficient in doing so, a strategy which requires the corresponding alignment and coordination of local social services. This handbook practically uses the results of a large research project. It shows how to build up networks of professionals and volunteers and to establish case management as a concept and method in order to coordinate individually oriented services. The handbook presents a theoretical foundation, but also practical concepts and useful instruments with which to implement them. It will appeal to those who work in the context of local social and migration policy, as well as academics and teachers in the field of social sciences.

Introduction. The article is devoted to the transformation of migration policies during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. The article discusses changes in migration processes in connection with the COVID-19. The aim of the article is to illustrate how the countries’ migration policy has changed due to the pandemic and what measures have been developed to support migrants. Methods and materials. The research methodology includes general scientific research methods, such as analysis, synthesis, content analysis and the aristotelian method. As well as specific scientific methods, such as comparative legal and system analysis. The empirical basis of the study is the data of the General Administration for Migration Issues of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russian Federation, the International Organization for Migration (IOM), and the United Nations (UN). Analysis. The authors conducted a comparative analysis of migration policies of various countries during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. Considerable attention is paid to the measures taken by countries to provide various types of support to migrants. The authors also analyzed the activities of international organizations and the civil society. The authors concluded that measures to restrain the pandemic affected the implementation of funded integration projects in the European countries, some activities were postponed, however, the European countries made certain efforts to adopt new integration practices to support migrants during the COVID-19 pandemic. Discussion. The authors assessed the further development of migration processes and countries migration policies. Results. The authors effectuated a conclusion that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the transformation of migration processes and migration policies.

International migration is an especially important interpretive key through which to understand the long history of globalization. Over the last 20 years, an increasing number of countries have experienced a prolonged transition in the nature of the migration to which they are subject: countries that were historically lands of emigration are becoming lands of immigration. This chapter describes how migration and migration policies have changed over the last two centuries, especially in Europe. Until the French Revolution, Europe had considered immigration a resource and not a scourge, and European imperialism has probably sown the seeds of distrust and racism that continue to pervade the world today. European states have alternated between policies favouring the restriction and promotion of migration, depending on their own perceived economic and geopolitical needs. Paradoxically, periods of restriction, intended to protect the domestic economy, preceded economic crises. It is possible to trace a cause-and-effect relationship between restrictive policies and subsequent economic crises.

One measure of how and whether the COVID-19 pandemic reshapes the emerging field of international migration law will be the extent to which transnational civil society and activist movements can counteract the intensification of state border controls that the pandemic has triggered. Before the pandemic, transnational efforts to establish a new normative framework for migration seemed to be accelerating. These efforts included new, if non-binding, global compacts on refugees and migration, and new, if modest, efforts at facilitating global cooperation, alongside innovative approaches to scholarly engagement. Such developments arguably contributed to an emerging framework for protecting migrants under international law. Has the pandemic defeated this potential? State responses to the pandemic have eschewed multilateralism, brought migration to a near standstill, and ignored well-established human rights obligations. Moreover, states are poised to deploy a range of new border management technologies and even more assertively manage migration in the name of “health proofing” borders. Yet at the same time, some progressive state practices have emerged alongside a call from the UN Secretary-General to “reimagine human mobility for the benefit of all.” In this essay, we chart some areas of potentially progressive expansion beyond the status quo, noting not only the substance but also the process by which these norms are emerging.

The purpose of this study is to reveal historical and contemporary aspects of the similarity, difference and interaction of Christian and legal spheres of the social reality. In particular, the interdisciplinary approach provided the combination of exegesis and hermeneutics, dialectics, dogmatic and historical methodological tools, and was used to retrace the evolution of the law and to disclose various connections between legal and religious prescriptions and the content. The main intersection points of the law and religion, particularly Christianity, such as sacredness, values, morality and axiomatic assertions are disclosed as well as the religious basis of the historical and contemporary law is proved in the article.

In this chapter, I describe how migrants actually arrive in Morocco. The data presented in the chapter situates their lives here in a context of extreme political, economic and social marginalization. I then analyse the migration policy context in Morocco and the increasing involvement of the European Union in this process. By doing this, I show how transit migrants’ rightlessness in Morocco has been constructed by states through the introduction of particular national and international migration policies which link mobility and rights in very specific ways.
