"Migration and security are two topics that are frequently conflated in migration policies as States try to keep undesirable migrants - such as criminals or suspected terrorists - out of their territory. This is why States usually insert clauses in theirnational laws to ensure such migrants are deprived of the right to enter or stay within their borders. States' default response to these undesirable migrants, who are sometimes considered a threat to national security due to their acts, is to start procedures to return them to their country of origin"-- Provided by publisher.
This book studies how States regulate the situation of migrants in need of international protection who have a criminal background or pose a threat to public order, evaluating the solutions applied and proposing an innovative alternative.
