You Already Know Enough
How are the dynamics of certainty and ignorance entwined within the logics of humanitarian reason? In what ways does data-driven humanitarianism (re)shape different forms of knowledge and non-knowledge? What is revealed and what is obfuscated through the proliferation of humanitarian data? This article addresses these questions through an analysis of 174 interviews conducted in 2021 and 2022 with humanitarian data experts, regional stakeholders a…
Engaging Data Literacies in Displacement
Data-driven humanitarianism is changing the face of aid. More data potentially enables quicker and more efficient evidence-based responses to situations of conflict and disaster. Yet the proliferation of data also challenges traditional lines of accountability, exacerbates the drive toward extractive relations and processes while deepening communication barriers and asymmetric relations between humanitarians and affected communities. This article…

Bridging Perspectives
Traditional approaches to designing social interventions often originate from the perspectives of social engineers, overlooking the nuanced experiences of those directly impacted by the intervention. Employing an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) methodological approach creates an opportunity for the researcher to delve into the world of those who access services and provide a more holistic understanding of the dynamics surrounding t…
Coloniality and frictions
It is now over a decade since the proclamation of a humanitarian 'data revolution', with the rise of 'innovation' and the proliferation of 'data solutions' rendering data-based humanitarianism an important area of critical investigation. This article contributes to debates within the field by exploring the role of data in the provision of humanitarian assistance within camps for internally displaced persons (IDPs) across north-eastern Nigeria and…
Global citizenship in the making? Generating an inventory of migratory claims
This article reflects on the potential and limitations of global citizenship as a concept by which to analyse the politics of precarious migration and develops a novel methodology by which to generate an inventory of migratory claims.It focuses specifically on migratory claims-making in the context of externalisation, whereby proliferating actants and complex practices of cross-border control render accountability for harm increasingly obscure.Em…

Reclaiming migration
Reclaiming Migration critically assesses the EU’s policy agenda on migration by directly engaging the voices of Europe’s so-called ‘migrant crisis’ that remain largely unheard: those of people on the move. It undertakes an extensive analysis of a counter-archive of migratory testimonies co-produced with people on the move across the Mediterranean during 2015 and 2016, to document the ways in which EU policy developments both produce and perpetuat…

Europe's Migration Crisis
Rejecting claims that migration is a crisis for Europe, this book instead suggests that the 'migration crisis' reflects a more fundamental breakdown of a modern European tradition of humanism. Squire provides a detailed and broad-ranging analysis of the EU's response to the 'crisis', highlighting the centrality of practices of governing migration through death and precarity. Furthermore, she unpacks a series of pro-migration activist intervention…
Hidden geographies of the ‘Mediterranean migration crisis’
This article explores the hidden geographies of what has been widely referred to as the ‘Mediterranean migration crisis’ of 2015 and 2016. Specifically, it draws on a large-scale analysis of migratory testimonies from across the central and eastern Mediterranean routes, in order to explore the claims or demands posed to European policy-makers by people on the move. Reflecting on the idea that migration forms a subversive political act that disrup…
Migration and the politics of 'the human
In what ways has migration as a field of scholarship contributed to the discipline of International Relations (IR)? How can migration as a lived experience shed light on international politics as a field of interconnections? And how might migration as a political and analytical force compel IR to confront its privileged subjects? This article addresses these questions by focusing specifically on precarious migration from the Global South to the G…
A milestone missed
This article emphasizes the limits of the global compact on migration (twinned with the global compact on refugees), and argues for the importance of a more courageous form of leadership that is grounded in a meaningful commitment to “profound solidarity with, and support for, the millions of people in different parts of the world”. Situating the compact as part of a state-centric agenda that is embedded in the interests of the global North, the …
The anti-policy of European anti-smuggling as a site of contestation in the Mediterranean migration ‘crisis
This article analyses the European anti-smuggling agenda as an anti-policy that derives legitimacy from fighting ‘bad things’, in terms that mask political disagreement. By juxtaposing the agenda to the experiences and understandings of those whom such measures affect most directly – people migrating without authorisation to the EU – it uncovers the productivity of anti-smuggling and the political contestations surrounding it. Based on a qualitat…
L.H.M. (Lily) Ling
All of us at International Political Sociology are greatly saddened by the news that L.H.M. (Lily) Ling has passed away. Lily was Professor of International Affairs at The New School and one of our valued Associate Editors at the journal. When we assembled our editorial team in 2016, Lily was one of the first people we approached to help us consolidate and strengthen the transdisciplinary ambitions of the journal and, most importantly, to expand …
Mobile Solidarities and Precariousness at City Plaza
This article explores how mobile solidarities are forged through precariousness at City Plaza, a disused hotel and collective refugee accommodation space in Athens, which has become a notorious site of resistance in the midst of the so-called “European migration crisis.” Drawing on qualitative research carried out during 2016, the article explores how solidarities are created at this space in terms that not only challenge the abandonment of lives…
Researching precarious migrations
How can research contribute to a positive transformation of the politics of migration? This article addresses the question with reference to a recent research project, Crossing the Mediterranean Sea by Boat, which maps and documents the journeys and experiences of people on the move across the Mediterranean. It explores how qualitative research engaging research participants as people with the authority to speak can affect change by exposing clai…
Governing migration through death in Europe and the US
Border deaths have become an established feature of contemporary migratory politics in both Europe and the US. This article examines similarities and differences in practices of ‘governing migration through death’ across the US-Mexico (Sonoran) and in the EU-North African (Mediterranean) contexts. Instead of taking a conventional comparative analysis of two distinct sites, the article draws on critical scholarship in the field of border studies i…
Irregular migration struggles and active subjects of trans-border politics
The politics of migration has become increasingly prominent as a site of struggle. However, the active subjecthood of people on the move in precarious situations is often overlooked. Irregular migration struggles raise questions about how to understand the agency of people who are marginalised. What does it mean to engage people produced as ‘irregular’ as active subjects of trans-border politics? And what new research strategies can we employ to …
Unauthorised migration beyond structure/agency? Acts, interventions, effects
What are the most appropriate conceptual tools by which to develop an analysis of ‘unauthorised migration’? Is ‘migrant agency’ an effective critical concept in the context of a so-called European migration ‘crisis’? This article reflects on these questions through a detailed exploration of the ‘structure/agency debate’. It suggests the need for caution in engaging such a conceptual frame in analysing the politics of unauthorised migration. Despi…
Divided Seas, Parallel Lives
This photo essay examines the sea as a divided space and as marked by the existence of parallel lives. Images taken during fieldwork on the small Mediterranean island of Lampedusa in 2015 are used to examine the ways in which these divisions are experienced, questioned and problematized by inhabitants of and visitors to the island. Lampedusa emerges here as a site of contested memorials and hospitalities, where lost lives are at best imperfectly …

Reshaping critical geopolitics? The materialist challenge
How can the ‘materialist turn’ contribute to the reshaping of critical geopolitics? This article draws attention to the limits of an approach that emphasises the representational, cultural, and interpretive dimensions of geopolitics, while acknowledging the difficulties of an ontological shift to materiality for many scholars of critical geopolitics. It draws on the work of Karen Barad and Annemarie Mol in order to advance three arguments for the…

The 'Minor' Politics of Rightful Presence
This article examines how historical and geographical relations of injustice are “made present” through the activities of the City of Sanctuary network in Sheffield, the UK. In so doing, it exposes the limitations of conceptualizing and enacting sanctuary through the frame of hospitality, and proposes an analytics of “rightful presence” as an alternative frame with which to address contemporary sanctuary practices. In contrast to a body of schola…
From Community Cohesion to Mobile Solidarities
This article draws attention to the limitations of the UK's integration and cohesion agenda and introduces an alternative analytical approach that focuses on solidarity, mobility and citizenship over cohesion, integration and community. Developing such an approach through analysing the City of Sanctuary network and the Strangers into Citizens campaign, the article has two interrelated objectives. First, it aims to shed critical light on the assum…
Acts of European Citizenship
European citizenship is marked by a tension: between a citizenship that is derivative of the nation‐state and a citizenship that is defined by free movement. Approaching this tension as symptomatic of a deep‐rooted contradiction between integration and mobility that is constitutive of modern social formations, this article develops a political sociology of mobility that challenges territorial and culturalist accounts of European citizenship. It d…

What are ‘acts of desertion’, how do they feature in contemporary border struggles, and what might an emphasis on such acts bring to the analysis of the politics of mobility? This article seeks to address these questions in the context of the Sonoran borderzone, which crosses Mexico and the US. It develops an analysis that sheds light on contemporary border struggles in terms that acknowledge both the intensity of security practices as well as th…

European Citizenship Unbound
In October 2005 200 delegates from twenty-eight countries in Europe gathered in Brussels to take part in an event for sex workers' rights, which involved a three-day conference, the presentation of a Declaration on the Rights of Sex Workers in Europe in the European Parliament, the drafting of a Manifesto, recommendations for policy makers, a party, and a demonstration. The sex workers' mobilisation appears, at first sight, to be an exemplary for…
Politics through a Web
What happens to citizenship when the nation and the state are no longer assumed to be the inevitable starting points from which politics is defined? This paper considers how a refusal of the nation as political community and a questioning of the state as guarantor of rights and responsibilities reconfigure our understandings of citizenship. We do this by taking as a metaphor and analytical entry point an art installation developed by artist Tomás…

Traditions of citizenship and the securitisation of migration in Germany and Britain
The European Union is often seen as a laboratory for a post-national polity. Leaving aside important discussions regarding exclusionary citizenship practices at the European level, this article draws attention to the on-going importance of member states' citizenship traditions, which constrain the development of post-national citizenship in the EU. Considering the cases of Germany and the UK, the article shows how longer-standing citizenship trad…

Irregular migration has emerged as an issue of intensive political debate and governmental practice over recent years. Critically intervening in debates around the governing of irregular migration, The Contested Politics of Mobility explores the politics of mobility through what is defined as an 'analytic of irregularity'. It brings together authors who address issues of mobility and irregularity from a range of distinct perspectives, to focus on…

Desafiando os limites da cidadania da União Europeia
Este artigo examina as disputas recentes acerca da mobilidade dos "roma" através da Europa, com foco nas reflexões que se pode fazer sobre os limites da cidadania da União Europeia (UE). Mostrando como a disputa para deportar e conter os cidadãos roma através dos Estados-membros da União reflete uma série mais ampla de limites concernentes à cidadania da UE, a análise questiona quaisquer suposições simplistas em relação à progressão da cidadania …
Atos de cidadania europeia
A cidadania europeia é marcada por uma tensão entre uma cidadania derivativa do Estado-nação e uma cidadania definida pela liberdade de movimento. Abordando essa tensão como sintomática de uma profunda contradição entre integração e mobilidade que é constitutiva das formações sociais modernas, este artigo desenvolve uma sociologia política da mobilidade que desafia as considerações territoriais e culturalistas sobre a cidadania europeia. Isso é f…

Forced Migrants as ‘Illegal’ Migrants
This chapter examines how many of those refugees and asylum seekers making transnational journeys are classified as irregular migrants by states who seek to make such movements illegitimate. It considers the framing, targeting, and active production of ‘forced migrants as illegal migrants’ in the literature and highlights the importance of the labels of ‘forced’ and ‘illegal’ in the governing of migration. It discusses the concept of ‘figures of …
