Civil society organisations and the local politics of migration: How funding contexts matter
Migration studies have highlighted the crucial role of civil society organisations (CSOs) in the local politics of migration. Less explored is the impact of the material conditions under which CSOs operate. And yet CSOs delivering public services to migrant and racialised populations often rely on public funding which has been significantly restructured since neoliberal welfare reforms in many Western countries in the 1990s. This article examines…

States of Ignorance: Governing Irregular Migrants in Western Europe
Much attention has been focused on how states produce knowledge about the people they govern; far less has been written about those aspects of society that states choose to keep obscure. This book makes an original contribution to understanding state ignorance by focusing on one of the most complex and contested social issues of our day: the governance of irregular migrants. Tracing the evolution of state monitoring and control of irregular migra…
What isn't in the files, isn't in the world: Understanding state ignorance of irregular migration in Germany and the United Kingdom
While there is extensive literature on states and knowledge, there has been little focus on state ignorance: instances where states are identified as lacking knowledge relevant to addressing social problems. We present the first systematic analysis of how states perceive and respond to ignorance, developing a typology of responses (denial, resignation, and elucidation). We test and refine the typology through analyzing state ignorance of unauthor…
What Drives the Immigration-Welfare Policy Link? Comparing Germany, France and the United Kingdom
Western European states have increasingly linked immigration and welfare policy. This trend has important implications for European welfare-state trajectories, but accounts of the policy reasoning behind it have diverged. Are policymakers attempting to delimit social citizenship to secure welfare-state legitimacy? Pursuing new, market-oriented welfare-state goals? Symbolically communicating immigration control intentions to voters? Or attempting …
Responding to the call for the Super Citizen: Migrants' ambivalent experiences of naturalization in Germany and the United Kingdom
Migration and citizenship studies tend to see naturalization as a highly ambivalent process which simultaneously includes and excludes migrants. Moving beyond this inclusion/exclusion divide, I conceptualize naturalization as a subject-formation regime that encourages naturalized citizens to transform themselves into political, economic and cultural assets to the nation-state, a subjectivity which I term (alluding to its overstraining character) …
Citizenship Matters: Towards an Interdisciplinary and Global Perspective on Naturalization
This article makes the case for an interdisciplinary and global perspective on naturalization before highlighting the key contributions of this special issue to the field of citizenship studies, relating to three research themes: the history, regulation and the lived experiences of naturalization. It then prepares the analytical ground for the following studies by discussing the most relevant conceptualizations of naturalization in the field: nat…
The fallacy of perfect regulatory controls: Lessons from database surveillance of migration in West Germany from the 1950s to the 1970s
Surveillance studies have long argued that electronic databases are designed to maximize state surveillance as a “superpanopticon” or “surveillant assemblage.” But how are databases being implemented in practice, and do they actually enhance control? This article addresses these questions by examining the case of the German Central Foreigners Register ( Ausländerzentralregister [AZR]). Established in 1953, the AZR was one of the first databases o…

Calling for the Super Citizen: Citizenship ceremonies in the UK and Germany as techniques of subject-formation
Migration and citizenship studies tend to conceive of naturalization and of citizenship ceremonies as highly ambivalent procedures. They simultaneously include and exclude migrants by granting full membership to certain migrants while separating them from national-born and other migrant citizens. Yet, existing studies with their focus on the inclusion/exclusion divide tend to overlook another key dimension of citizenship ceremonies. I argue that …
