Over the years, it has become clear that migration is a structural phenomenon in our societies and not a sporadic one. However, in recent decades, governments, international organizations and academia have associated migration with the concept of crisis. Why is human mobility still linked to the idea of an extraordinary event of modernity? Is migration a consequence of the crisis or a cause? How do different governments and international organizations construct the concept of migration crisis? Seeking to answer these and other questions, the chapters in this volume offer a critical look at the link between migration and crisis from different theoretical and geographical angles and invite us to rethink the limits of the very concept of migration crisis through twelve case studies organized around the analytical categories of politics, environment and identities.
