پیوند مهاجرت و جابجایی: الگوها، فرآیندها و سیاست‌ها (مهاجرت اجباری، جلد ۳۲)

"The "migration-displacement nexus" is a new concept intended to capture the complex and dynamic interactions between voluntary and forced migration, both internally and internationally. Besides elaborating a new concept, this volume has three main purposes: the first is to focus empirical attention on previously understudied topics, such as internal trafficking and the displacement of foreign nationals, using case studies including Afghanistan and Iraq; the second is to highlight new challenges, including urban displacement and the effects of climate change; and the third is to explore gaps in current policy responses and elaborate alternatives for the future."-- Provided by publisher Koser (Geneva Centre for Security Policy, Switzerland) and Martin (international migration, Georgetown U., US) deploy the concept of the "migration-displacement nexus" as a means of illustrating "the increasing complexities of migration and displacement; the growing difficulties of distinguishing between the two; the misalignment between existing labels, categories and constructions and migration realities; and the consequences of falling into legal, normative, and institutional gaps." They present 14 papers that illustrate these complexities of the migration-displacement nexus around the world, shedding light on the ways that categories of voluntary versus forced and economic versus political migration are too simplistic; protection gaps due to mixed flows of migrants to and from places but with differing motives; the ways that different migrant groups adopt broadly similar survival strategies and how that can lead to the invisibility of victims of forced displacement and resettlement; status and category changes for migrants resulting either through intentional acts (e.g., overstaying a visa) or through arbitrary changes in law and policies; cases where migrants simultaneously fit multiple pre-existing categories; and different levels of vulnerability and need within single categories.
