Description
This panel features scholarship exploring new avenues for desecuritization of migration politics especially in the age of growing nationalism. Kalantzi offers a broad framework to demonstrate how the EU policies have used discussions about burden-sharing to aid securitization politics. Arrouche shows how securitization can take place through the use of radicalized discourses. Chakraborty shows how politics of securitization has been applied towards Afghans. Garcia demonstrates that desecuritization of migration discourses can be used in advancing migrant protection.
