| Summary: | This chapter discusses trends in global migration on the background of processes of commodification and recommodification and the rise of a neoliberal ‘regulatory state’. It explores perspectives for a contemporary countermovement of, for, or with a global ‘migrant precariat’. Through a review of current research advances relating to the ideopolitical processes leading up to the confirmation of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM), and the subsequent International Migration Review Forum, the authors ask what space there is for civil society in the global governance on migration? They explore potentials and pitfalls of the memento of ‘human rights’ related to the claims of civil society. |
