Migreurop report: At the margins of Europe: externalisation of migration controls
|
| > |
This 2010-2011 report focusses once
again on two pillars of European migration
policy that Migreurop has often described:
the subcontracting of controls and the detention
of migrants and asylum seekers, this
time surveyed in their maritime and eastern
dimensions.
While a wall is being built in
western Turkey to prevent border crossings
into Greece, Turkey actively cooperates with
EU policy by locking its eastern border with
Iran and by organising, as readers will see, a
real hunt for refugees.Externalisation also involves the privatisation
of controls. Adopted as soon as 2001,
a European directive envisages sanctions for
carriers transporting passengers who do not
have the documents required to enter an EU
member state. This transfer of a state function
to private agents is not something new.
Since the early 1990s, it has been the rule
in merchant navy ships for the treatment of
‘stowaways’ who board merchant ships in
the hope of reaching Europe. In this sector,
policing tasks have effectively been primarily
transferred towards shipowners and insurers.
The report describes and analyses these processes
on the basis of testimonies collected
in German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, French
and Bulgarian ports. |
