A Catch 22: Afghans and the International Migration Regime

Abstract

After decades of war, Afghans were ‘globalized’ long before 2021. Their dispersion worldwide is in stark contrast with their current de facto immobilization. National geopolitical interests in Pakistan and Iran, strategic non-regulation, and a renewed populist turn in European migration governance constitute Afghans as objects – deportable, deniable, illegalized and subjected to instrumentalization if needed. Subsequently, Afghans are caught in a Catch 22-situation with nowhere to (re)turn to. Find the article here .
