Migration and Crime in a Divided World
This special issue offers an in-depth examination of the criminalization of migration. It delves into how migration policies, intensified by increasing restrictions and criminalizing approaches, impact migrants and the broader societal perceptions and reactions to them. The volume seeks to understand the experiences of migrants under these policies, aiming to uncover the societal effects of migration policies and the complex interplay between migration, crime, and societal changes both in Global North and Global South contexts. By focusing on the day-to-day experiences of criminalized migrants, the issue aims to challenge the dominant narratives of tragedy and despair, highlighting the active engagement of migrants in navigating, resisting, and even reproducing these conditions. It brings together critical scholarship to explore the nuanced realities of migration, emphasizing the importance of understanding migrants’ perspectives and responses to criminalization. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the issue aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the intersections of migration, criminalization, and resistance, urging a reevaluation of migration policies and practices.
