“…the ICMPD's "i-Map", see Hess, 2012) and last but not least, the extensive practical experience of service providers "on the ground" in countries of origin and transit (e.g. IOM, UNHCR, local NGOs) have become extremely important in this respect (Caillaut, 2012;Geiger, 2010Geiger, , 2011Hyndman, 2000;Korneev, forthcoming;Scheel and Ratfisch, forthcoming).…”

“…IOM has become an important political and administrative player within the migration management paradigm (Andrijasevic and Basok and Piper, 2012;Caillault, 2012;Chi, 2008;Geiger, 2010;Georgi and Schatral, 2012;Poutignat and Streiff-Fénart, 2010). Despite its rhetoric concerning migrant rights, the organization engages in practices in the area of migration control that prioritize the rights of states, including repatriation programmes dubbed as "voluntary ", the administration of detention and deportation camps as well as capacity building and technical consultation for states undergoing reforms towards more restrictive immigration and refugee policies (Ashutosh and Mountz, 2011;Georgi, 2010).…”

The global political economy is in flux as a series of cumulative crises impacts its organization and governance. The IPE series has tracked its development in both analysis and structure over the last three decades. It has always had a concentration on the global South. Now the South increasingly challenges the North as the centre of development, also reflected in a growing number of submissions and publications on indebted Eurozone economies in Southern Europe.An indispensable resource for scholars and researchers, the series examines a variety of capitalisms and connections by focusing on emerging economies, companies and sectors, debates and policies. It informs diverse policy communities as the established trans-Atlantic North declines and 'the rest', especially the BRICS, rise.

“…Migrants’ multifaceted precariousness constitutes, thus, an engineered form of precariousness that lies at the intersection of industrial relations and migration law. A number of scholars have placed the disciplining effects of such a regulatory framework or regime at the centre of their analysis (Bauder, ; Geiger, ); that is, workers are disciplined into compliance within a neoliberal capitalist system that channels them into performing the so‐called ‘three D’ jobs (dangerous, dirty and difficult) that no local worker wants to do.…”

This article uses migrant precarity as a lens through which to analyse the issue of mobilization for migrants' rights by civil society. Such mobilization efforts are vital in light of the emergence of global migration governance, which tends to actively constrain considerations for migrants' human and labour rights. Asia's temporary migrants have been identified as a particularly precarious group of workers due to their specific position within the international division of labour, one that is defined by poorly-or unregulated work with insecure legal and residential status. Moreover, with local employment in countries of origin often characterized by informal employment, poor working conditions and unsustainable livelihoods, migrant workers are caught within a protracted precarity that spans life at home and abroad. Stronger normative and organizational links between global migration governance and migrant rights movements are needed to advance decent work agendas within countries of destination, as well as in countries of origin.

In this essay, the author takes up William Walters ' (2006) incitement to theorize transmigration through the Deleuzian concept of control. The importance of mechanisms, or technologies, that modulate population flows are explored by paying close attention to novel strategies of migration policing and securitization in the United States, the European Union, Australia, and North Africa. These technologies no longer take the border as their "proper" site, but instead rely on processes of internalization, externalization, and excision to produce conditions of generalized precariousness. The author argues that these technologies of control resist simple categorization as biopolitics, and instead are more fruitfully considered through the lens of control societies and precarity. Ultimately, the inclusion/exclusion dialectic is put under erasure.
