REvolTURN – Managing migrant return through ‘voluntariness’
Reinhard Schweitzer. Supervisor: Sieglinde Rosenberger. University of Vienna, Department of Political Science.
The project REvolTURN (MSCA-IF 2017-2019) looks at public policies for the so-called ‘voluntary return’ of irregular migrants and (refused) asylum seekers – how they work in practice and whether they meet stated policy goals and discharge state obligations regarding migrants’ human rights. Through a close and comparative analysis of the Austrian and British return regimes, it examines 1) how voluntariness of return is constructed and framed in law, policy and public discourse, 2) which notions of voluntariness are crucial for policy implementation, and 3) what impact this has on migrants’ own decision-making about their return.
MIGSOL – Migration Solidarity and Acts of Citizenship along the Balkan Route
Dr. Celine Cantat. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Prem Kumar Rajaram and Dr. Violetta Zentai. Central European University, Center for Policy Studies.
The EU-funded MIGSOL project (MSCA-IF 2017-2019) examined practices of citizenship and political mobilisation with and by migrants and refugees along the Balkan route, and explored how they participated in the formation of political subjectivities that subvert the dominant political architecture of the European Union, still based on the nation-state and its citizen as the space and subject of political action.
