Abstract

ESTEVEZ, Ariadna. From Refugee to Forced Migrant: The Legalization of the Disposable Migrant. Nómadas [online]. 2021, n.54, pp.13-29.  Epub Jan 13, 2022. ISSN 0121-7550.  https://doi.org/10.30578/nomadas.n54a1.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze how the neoliberal administration of forced migrations has subordinated the asylum regime to exclude thousands of forced migrants and uses it to manage the lives of refugees. The article examines how the legal category of asylum has been fragmented into various types of forced migrants to disperse and restrict international protection. The author concludes that this subordination of the international asylum and refugee regime to the global management of migration, as well as the fragmentation of the asylum category in various types of forced migrations, has led to the disposability of thousands of refugees.

Keywords : Forced Migration; Asylum; Refuge; Global Migration Management; International Law; Human Rights.
