Seniorforsker Ninna Nyberg Sørensen undersøger i den nyeste udgave af International Migration sammenhængen mellem migration, udvikling og sikkerhed.

The journal International Migration newest issue (vol 50, no 3) puts special emphasis on the links between migration and development and what has been argued, tried out, succeeded and failed in the name of this nexus.

In the volume, senior researcher Ninna Nyberg Sørensen explores the nexus between migration, development and security.

She argues that shifting geopolitical concerns have changed the balance between these three policy areas over time; policy agenda setting has by and large been dictated by the global North.

The article suggests analyzing the nexus constructions through an analytical lens capable of encompassing both migrants and their border spanning activities and migration policies and state responses aimed at controlling human mobility.

The starting point for her analysis is the intersection between the migration industry, understood as he broad array of both legal and clandestine actors linked to the facilitation of international migration.

And also the growing markets for migration management both at the interstate level and in the increased use of private and commercial agents for control purposes.
