New open access book:
- "The Chapters that follow assess the new components and policy priorities
laid down in the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum from different
multidisciplinary perspectives and world regions experiences. They explore
the rights and international protection implications, enshrined both in the
foundations of the UN GCR and the EU Treaties as well as policy and
governance arrangements both domestically and internationally. They address
the implications of these policy and governance approaches for the
geopolitics of international law, paying attention to the relations that the
Pact seeks to promote between states and other relevant international and
regional actors, and also how its proposed policy roadmap can be expected to
transform or reconfigure these relations."
