New Special Issue: “Migration, Civil Society and Global Governance” #ForMigration #GFMD

A Special Issue of the journal “Globalizations” has been published on the theme “Migration, Civil Society and Global Governance”. It was guest edited by my esteemed colleagues Carl-Ulrik Schierup, Branka Likić-Brborić, Raúl Delgado Wise & Gülay Toksöz and focusses specifically on “the positionality and capacity of civil society to influence the Global Forum for Migration and Development”. My own contribution is titled “Angry birds of passage – migrant rights networks and counter-hegemonic resistance to global migration discourses”. Several of the articles are open access and you can find them here:
