    Summary note
    • "Mediterranean states have developed various cooperation mechanisms in order to cope with the issues that arise from migration. This book critically analyses how institutional actors act and interact on the international scene in the control and management of migration in the Mediterranean. It highlights how, even though the involvement of 'universal' international organisations guarantees a certain balance in setting the goals of cooperation mechanisms and buttresses a certain coherence of the actions, the protection of migrants' fundamental rights is still an objective as opposed to a reality, and security imperatives and trends still prevail in the aftermath of the 2011 Arab Spring"-- Provided by publisher
    • "The Mediterranean Sea has always been a route for migration. For centuries caravans have crossed its waters for the most diverse reasons: commerce, war, pilgrimage, cultural exchange, etc. In the last decades, these same waters constitute the scenery of what appears as a never ending tragedy, irregular migration and the thousands of related deaths. According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM), 2014 has been so far the deadliest year for the Mediterranean, with nearly 1,900 migrants lost their lives, compared to the 700 recorded in 2013 and about 500 recorded in 2012"-- Provided by publisher
