It specifies the value of migration governance repertoires as a way to look inside the ‘black box’ of migration governance and to know more about how know-how and expectations about role held by key actors play a powerful role in the outputs and outcomes that emerge from these systems. It is shown that regions play a key role in mediating the relationship between the global and national level. More than this it, is argued that regions play an important role in shaping the ways in which global norms and standards are understood and interpreted. This means that it is not simply a question of adaptation to global standards but, in contrast, how global norms and standards are rendered meaningful at regional and national levels. The chapter also shows how understandings of what is ‘normal’ about migration—of its causes and effects—are the backdrop against which intermittent crises are interpreted.","PeriodicalId":214724,"journal":{"name":"Governing Migration Beyond the State","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124731932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By focusing on four key world regions—Europe, North America, South America, and Southeast Asia—this book explores the underlying factors that shape governance responses. Rather than focusing on the more visible outputs or outcomes of governance processes such as laws and policies, this book opens the ‘black box’ of migration governance to reveal how understandings and representations of the causes and effects of migration held by key governance actors in these four regions have powerful effects not only on governance outcomes but more broadly on the prospects for global migration governance. By doing so, the book shows how migration governance systems, through their operation and effects, can shape migration—in its various forms—and the lived experiences of migrants.","PeriodicalId":214724,"journal":{"name":"Governing Migration Beyond the State","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134601740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
