The book presents the results of several qualitative research project with
different actors that put migration policies into practice. It shows the
different ways in which day-to-day activities of organisations shape migration
policies on the ground. This book offers a comprehensive exploration on how
different migration policies are implemented day by day. Such an approach
allows to show the different ways in which migration policies on the ground
take a life of their own when compared to the letter of the law. The book
shows the need to understand the specific logics and workings of the
implementation of policies, while taking into account the continued role
played by politicians and the judiciary, non-state actors and migrants.
Qualitative research with different public institutions implementing migration
policies are combined with an exploration of the role of NGOs, supranational
institutions and the migrants themselves. Bringing together the results of
several research projects with fieldwork in Belgium, the UK, France, Morocco
and Malta, the book covers the different stages of the migratory career. It
follows the potential trajectory of a migrant from visa obtention (both in
general and for students specifically) to border controls, asylum (including
resettlement and gender and sexuality-based asylum), access to residence (with
a specific focus on marriage-based residence), healthcare and nationality, or
to detention and managed return migration. Through its chapters it shows the
day-to-day logics, routines and tactics that bureaucrats and other actors
adopt, within the constrains of laws, social interactions, and ideas about
policies.
